Licensure and Certification Workgroup

The Licensure and Certification Workgroup (LCW) was formed pursuant to Special Act 17-21.  The Act requires the Office of Policy and Management (OPM) to convene a workgroup to conduct a review of the certification and licensure processes of certain nonprofit community providers, and study potential efficiencies.  Membership must consist of 6 representatives of non-profit community providers and two representatives from the Department of Children and Families (DCF), Department of Developmental Services (DDS), Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS) and Department of Public Health (DPH).  A progress report must be submitted to the legislature by September 15, 2017 and a final report is due to the legislature by December 31, 2017.
