Rhode Island H7361, known as the Quality Self-Directed Supports Act of 2026, aims to enhance the self-directed supports program by incorporating collective bargaining rights for self-directed direct support professionals. This bill allows these professionals to negotiate with the state over terms and conditions of their employment, including training, wages, benefits, and other economic matters. The bill ensures that the rights of participants and their representatives to select, direct, and terminate the services of self-directed direct support professionals remain unaffected.
