In 2008, the Florida Legislature established (F.S. 413.401) the James Patrick Memorial Work Incentive Personal Attendant Services Program (JP-PAS). The program allows working residents with documented severe and chronic disabilities to receive monthly stipend specifically to maintain a Personal Care Attendant (PCA) to assist them with activities of daily living.
The JP-PAS Program provides financial assistance to persons who are gainfully employed and have severe or chronic disabilities that require assistance from a personal care attendant (PCA) for at least 2 activities of daily living such as self-care, including ambulation, bathing, dressing, eating, grooming, and toileting, and other similar tasks.For program requirements and more information, visit: https://www.floridacils.org/pca-services-program
