Current policy issue: the intersection of two major changes to counties

Together, the intersection of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Realignment account as probably the most significant change to county services and funding since Proposition 13. This policy course provides an up-to-date discussion of county implementation of ACA and the changes to realignment programs and funding that were made as part of the 2013-14 State Budget. Participants will examine what is known about how the changes will be implemented and those issues which continue to remain unresolved.

It is anticipated that many of the implementation decisions will be made by this time, and this course will pull those together in a comprehensive manner for policy makers.
