The California In Home Supportive Services Consumer Alliance (CICA) is a statewide coalition of IHSS Advisory Committee and Governing Board members representing the consumer viewpoint on all IHSS issues at the local, state and federal levels. CICA works closely with IHSS providers to raise awareness of consumer issues. This is the first organization of its kind in the state.

Our goal is to provide statewide support and communication on IHSS program issues to Advisory Committee and Governing Board members. As such, CICA provides training materials, updates on legislation and regulations and a networking opportunity for advancing and supporting the mandates of the IHSS program and to make the voice of the consumer heard and recognized.

CICA is a membership organization with an annual dues payment. Some of the benefits afforded from membership include:

  • Network with fellow members and get ideas and information on improving your IHSS program, your Public Authority and your Advisory Committee or Governing Board.
  • Plan and attend an annual statewide CICA conference at discounted rates.
  • Participate in a monthly CICA conference call.
  • Receive current information on IHSS issues at the state and federal levels.
  • Quarterly CICA newsletter.
  • CICA website access.
  • Opportunity to develop CICA, its vision and program.

Most importantly, CICA provides an opportunity for IHSS Advisory Committee and Governing Board members to communicate statewide and become even more valuable players in the successful application of California’s IHSS program. We’re working together to keep California’s elderly and disabled safe and secure in their own homes.
