To assist Rhode Islanders and their families in making informed choices and decisions about long-term service and support options and to streamline access to long-term supports and services for older adults, persons with disabilities, family caregivers, and providers, a statewide aging and disability resource center shall be maintained. The Rhode Island aging and disability resource center (ADRC) is a state multi-agency effort. It consists of a centrally operated, coordinated system of information, referral, and options counseling for all persons seeking long-term supports and services in order to enhance individual choice, foster informed decision-making, and minimize confusion and duplication.
