COMMUNITY RESOURCES FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES (CRPD)

The Community Resources for People with Disabilities (CRPD) program provides community-based services for individuals who are in need of long-term institutional care. The purpose of CRPD is to help eligible individuals remain in the community rather than be cared for in a nursing facility or a hospital setting.

Services Available

The CRPD program offers all of New Jersey Title XIX Medicaid services except nursing facility coverage, plus the following services:

  • Private-Duty Nursing
  • Personal Care Assistant
  • Environmental/vehicle accessibility adaptation
  • Personal Emergency Response System
  • Community Transitional Services

CRPD participants work together with a care manager to develop a Plan of Care to best meet their needs. The care manager then works with the participant to ensure that services are delivered as planned.

You may be eligible for CRPD if you are:

  • Blind or disabled of any age. Individuals who have not been determined disabled by the Social Security Administration must be determined disabled by the Division of Medical Assistance and Health Services Disability Review Section, AND
  • Assessed by the Department of Health and Senior Services' Long Term Care Field Office as in need of a nursing facility level of care, AND
  • Have a monthly income of up to $2,094 and less than $2000 in assets or are eligible for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or New Jersey Care.
  • There is no deeming of parental income or resources in determination of eligibility. A spouse's income also is not considered. While a spouse's resources are considered in the determination of eligibility, up to one half of the total recourses are protected for the use of the spouse.
