What is ARF (Adult Residential Facility)? ARF license in California authorizes a facility to provide 24-hour non-
medical care, supervision, room, meals, and assistance with daily living (like bathing, hygiene) for adults (18-59) with mental, physical, or developmental disabilities, requiring a certified administrator, specific
training, and compliance with state health/safety standards, unlike RCFEs which focus on the elderly.
Who Provides Clients to an Adult Residential Facility (ARF)?
Clients for Adult Residential Facilities (ARFs) are primarily provided through government programs. State
agencies such as the Department of Developmental Services (DDS) and the Department of Social Services (DSS) fund and coordinate placements for individuals with developmental disabilities and mental health needs. Eligible individuals are often referred through Regional Centers and programs such as the Assisted Living Waiver (ALW) for Medi-Cal beneficiaries. These programs support the transition of individuals from institutional settings to community-based living and ensure placement in licensed ARFs. In addition, the state certifies facilities to provide specialized services, including Enhanced Behavioral Support Homes. Through these referrals and funding mechanisms, ARFs provide residents with 24-hour non-medical care, supervision, and supportive services in a safe, community based environment.
Primary Payment Sources:
Adult Residential Facilities (ARFs) get paid through a mix of private payments, government programs like Medi-Cal (medicaid) especially through waivers like the Assisted Living Waiver), and SSI (social security income) from residents, often supplemented by state/county "patches" or enhanced funding for mental health services.
Additional Funding & Subsidies:
•Government Subsidies (“Patches"): Because resident SSI/SSP often isn't enough for ARF operations, state or county funds (like "patches") are crucial, especially for facilities serving mental health clients.
•Enhanced Funding: Larger facilities serving mental health residents can get more county revenue and enhanced funding for more robust services (dietary, activities, etc.).
•Medicare & Managed Care: Can also contribute, but often less so than
Medi-Cal for residential care.
