POSITION
Immigration

​The need and desire for home care within the United States is strong and ever-growing. The 4,500+ agencies of HCAOA provide care for hundreds of thousands of people annually. Unfortunately, thousands more don’t receive the services they need due to a dire caregiver shortage. HCAOA believes this shortage could be reduced by streamlining and clarifying the backlogged and convoluted EB-3 visa process.
