Consumer Directed Choices, Inc. is a nonprofit organization based in Albany, New York, that enables older adults and people with disabilities to live independently in their own homes and communities. The organization operates under a consumer-directed model, allowing individuals and their families to recruit, hire, train, and supervise their own caregivers, while CDChoices handles administrative and payroll support. Its services include the Expanded In-Home Services for the Elderly Program (EISEP), respite care, and private-pay home care options, all designed to provide personalized, cost-effective assistance rooted in dignity and autonomy. Founded and led by people with disabilities and their families, CDChoices emphasizes decision-making by care recipients to tailor services to their needs. In addition to its core home-care offerings, the organization has pursued partnerships and program expansions in recent years, such as collaborations expanding Medicaid waiver services in New York City and dementia support through a Medicare program. The company operates within the broader individual and family services sector, serving clients in the Capital Region and surrounding communities.
