To access WA Cares benefits, you need to meet a contribution requirement and a care needs requirement. To determine if you meet the care needs requirement, you will talk with a WA Cares team member in an assessment.  
 

We will cover how the program works, the care needs requirement, how to prepare for your assessment, what to expect during your assessment and what happens after your assessment.
 

Beginning July 2026, each person who is eligible to receive the full WA Cares Fund benefit amount can access long-term care services and supports costing up to $36,500 (grows over time with inflation).

We will cover how the program works, how to apply for benefits, all covered services and supports and how far the benefit goes.
