Health & Human Services Policy & Planning Division (HHS)

The Health and Human Services Policy and Planning Division (HHS) in OPM helps improve health care and human service systems in Connecticut. We support children, families, older adults and individuals with disabilities:

• Develop policies to improve the quality of life for people
• Coordinate cross-agency efforts, data collection, and planning
• Manage grant programs
• Support long-term care planning
• Work with other groups to improve health access, quality, and safety

HHS coordinates many cross-agency groups to improve services in Connecticut. Here, you'll find a list of our councils and committees. Here you'll find membership lists, meeting schedules, and additional resources.

Connecticut joined private insurance companies to give information on why long‑term care is important. This program makes it easier to find and buy good, affordable long‑term care insurance. It also helps people get the care they need without losing all their savings.
