Residents Have the Right to Vote

Election Day is Tuesday, November 5th.

Individuals receiving long-term services and supports retain their voting rights, no matter where they live or what type of care they receive. Federal regulations guarantee residents’ rights, including their rights as citizens, which includes the right to vote. As local elections approach, now is the time for residents of long-term care to make a plan for voting.
