The Illinois Department on Aging has been awarded a $1,243,041 formula grant from the Administration for Community Living (ACL) under the Fiscal Year 2025 Older Americans Act Nutrition Services Incentive Program (CFDA 93.053). This grant will support the efficient delivery of nutritious meals to older adults in Illinois through home-delivered and congregate meal programs, enhancing the quality and sustainability of nutrition services for the state's aging population. As the designated State Unit on Aging, the Illinois Department on Aging will utilize this funding to provide critical food assistance, nutrition education, and related supportive services to promote the health, independence, and well-being of seniors across the state. The department frequently sub-awards portions of these federal grants to local Area Agencies on Aging, county organizations, and non-profit partners to facilitate direct service delivery in Illinois communities.
