Community First Services and Supports Program Information
CFSS is a Minnesota health care program that offers flexible options to meet the unique needs of people. CFSS allows people greater independence in their homes and communities. CFSS will replace personal care assistance (PCA) and the Consumer Support Grant (CSG).
Under CFSS, individuals will work with a Consultation Services Provider, like Arc Northland, to be able to choose between the Budget Model or Agency Model. Consultation Services Providers will provide education on their options and provide support in writing their service delivery plan.
