Find out if you might be eligible for SSI

The In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) program provides paid assistance to income eligible aged, blind, and/or disabled individuals so they can remain safely in their own  homes

IHSS advocates’ mission is to provide families with children diagnosed with developmental disabilities, such as ASD, with the tools and services to obtain and maintain Protection Supervision. Our vision is to see the number of eligible families receiving Protective Supervision increase significantly. We provide assistance and representation throughout the application, assessment, reassessment, and administrative hearing processes.

We assist people with developmental disabilities and their families by building a team of supportive physicians, therapists, and other professionals for each of our clients.

We provide services in Alpine, Colusa, El Dorado, Nevada, Placer, Sacramento, Sierra, Sutter, Yolo, and Yuba counties.

I'll go through each one and ask you to repeat it back to yourself three times each.

Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) often result in severe effects on visual system function. Studies show that up to 90% of TBI patients experience some form of vision disruption, causing an interrupted communication between the eyes and the brain.
