Adoption of a new local government article to the Pennsylvania Constitution in 1968 guaranteeing the right of all Pennsylvania counties and municipalities to adopt home rule charters and exercise home rule powers was hailed as a watershed in the history of local government in Pennsylvania.
Home rule first came to Pennsylvania in 1922 when the Constitution was amended to allow the General Assembly to grant cities the right to adopt home rule charters.
Home rule was one of the central points of the new local government article proposed to the voters and adopted in 1968.

 Pennsylvania Transition to Home (PATH): Pennsylvania's Nursing Home Transition Program
Pennsylvania had to delay PATH implementation for several months because it had difficulty transferring federal funds from the agency that officially received the grant--the Medicaid agency, the Department of Public Welfare (DPW)--to a subcontractor that would serve as the grant's fiscal entity.
Pennsylvania hired independent contractors to assist residents who want to transition, believing the traditional civil service hiring processes would be time-consuming and impractical given the short-term nature of the project.
Second, while some of Pennsylvania's Medicaid HCBS waivers paid for home modifications, the waivers required the person live in the home before the modification was complete--which was not feasible for a transitioning consumer.
