Formula Grant 2501MDOAFC

This FY2025 Formula Grant award of $5,493,344 from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Administration for Community Living supports the National Family Caregiver Support, Title III, Part E (CFDA 93.052) program. The grant provides comprehensive funding to the Maryland Department of Aging to deliver a range of services for family caregivers and older relative caregivers across the state, including information dissemination, counseling, training, respite care, and supplemental support. These services are designed to help caregivers maintain the health and well-being of care recipients while addressing their personal and professional needs, with a particular emphasis on supporting those caring for individuals with early-onset dementia and adults with disabilities. The Maryland Department of Aging frequently partners with local Area Agencies on Aging, community organizations, and volunteer groups to implement these caregiver support initiatives.
