The Fight for Family PCS with Jessica Jackman

The Fight for Family PCS with Jessica Jackman

Jessica Jackman is a disability and family caregiver advocate from Pocatello, Idaho, and is affiliated with Fair Care Idaho, a grassroots organization focused on protecting and strengthening supports for Idaho families who provide in-home care to loved ones with disabilities. Drawing from her lived experience as a caregiver for her son, Jessica has become an active voice in statewide discussions surrounding Medicaid-funded family caregiving, home and community-based services, and Idaho’s direct care workforce shortage. She has worked alongside advocacy coalitions, caregivers, and policymakers to highlight the critical role family caregivers play in keeping individuals with disabilities living safely and independently in their homes and communities.
