Abstract:
Given the rapidly changing Long-Term Services and Supports (LTSS) system in the United States, it is essential for social workers and other health professionals to critically examine how this evolving landscape continues to shape racial inequities in formal LTSS and subsequent health outcomes. This commentary seeks to inform social work education, research, and practice by describing how systemic racism impacts the use and quality of formal LTSS. We present a call to action for social workers to dismantle systemic racism in LTSS that perpetuates ongoing racial inequities.
