SB 1261: Aging and Disability Resource Connection program.
What SB 1261 does, verified August 26, 2026
The bill aims to protect the Aging and Disability Resource Connection (ADRC) program in California. The program provides information to consumers and their families on available long-term services and supports. The bill prohibits the California Department of Aging from revoking the ADRC program solely due to issues with the area agency on aging or independent living center partner. Instead, the remaining partner can continue to operate the ADRC independently during a transition period. This ensures the continuity of the program and its services.
