Money Follows the Person Demonstration: Overview of State Grantee Progress, July to December 2012

A new report summarizes progress made between July and December 2012 by Money Follows the Person (MFP) grant programs. MFP grants support state efforts to help individuals living in institutions move to home and community settings if that is where they wish to receive long-term services and supports. By the end of 2012, the fifth full year of the MFP demonstration, the number of MFP transitions continued to grow by all measures. From July to December 2012, states reported 4,882 new transitions, an increase of 13 percent compared to the previous six month period.
