Artificial intelligence is reshaping home care settings faster than most employers, policymakers, and workers have had time to prepare. Scheduling tools, documentation assistants, health monitoring devices, and workforce analytics platforms are already changing how direct care workers perform their jobs — yet we’re still learning how to ensure effective adoption, workflow integration, AI performance, privacy and security.


This panel brings together provider, research, and federal voices to examine AI adoption through a worker-centered lens — giving attendees a clearer picture of where the field is, what the risks are, and what responsible AI integration in HCBS requires.


Featured Speakers:

  • Robert Espinoza, Founder & CEO, The CareWorks Project
  • Gabrielle Sedor, Chief Operations Officer and Foundation Director, ANCOR
  • Kelly Cronin, Deputy Administrator for Innovation and Partnership, Administration for Community Living (ACL)
  • Sean Ruddy, Workforce Analyst, US Department of Labor
