PICS expands choices and improves services for individuals with disabilities, older adults, and their families and caregivers. A subsidiary of Lutheran Social Service of Minnesota, PICS has been providing support for those who choose to self-direct their care at home through waiver funding since 1999. We believe that you can identify your own needs better than anyone else. Our role at PICS is to give you the information you need to pay for your chosen supports. Our customer-service focus means that you spend less time worrying about the financial side of self-directed care and more time caring for your loved one.
