Concepts of Independence

Concepts of Independence, Inc. is a pioneering organization that introduced the groundbreaking Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Services (CDPAS) program in 1980. This program empowers severely disabled and chronically ill individuals to independently hire, train, and supervise their own Personal Assistant home care worker, enabling them to live with freedom and dignity while saving New York State Medicaid millions of dollars annually.

With a focus on providing cost-effective care, Concepts of Independence revolutionized the traditional home care model, offering a lower-cost alternative that benefits both individuals and the state. Serving various counties, including the 5 boroughs of New York City, Concepts of Independence has been instrumental in promoting the rights and responsibilities of independence for those in need.
