Within the CFRP framework, systems competencies include understanding the broader systemic factors that influence service delivery, such as policy and legal frameworks. Reforms expanding home and community-based services often arise in response to legal action, such as court rulings or settlements that mandate improved access to community-based care over institutionalization. The CFRP study guide highlights that “legal actions, including lawsuits and advocacy efforts, have historically driven reforms to expand home and community-based services, ensuring compliance with federal mandates like the Olmstead decision.” Educational initiatives (option A), economic decline (option B), and population growth (option C) may influence service needs but are not the primary drivers of such reforms compared to legal mandates.
CFRP Study Guide (Section on Systems Competencies): “Reforms expanding home and community-based services are often prompted by legal action, such as court rulings or advocacy efforts, to ensure equitable access to care.”
