What Is the Assisted Living Waiver (ALW)?

The Assisted Living Waiver is a California Medi-Cal program that helps eligible seniors receive assisted living services in approved residential care homes. ALW allows seniors to move from nursing homes or unsafe living situations into community-based assisted living settings like Luna Senior Living.

Residents must already be approved for ALW by a Care Coordination Agency before moving in.
