The New Jersey Department of Human Services has been awarded a $7,272,368 Formula Grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Administration for Community Living (ACL) under the Special Programs for the Aging, Title III, Part B, Grants for Supportive Services and Senior Centers program (CFDA 93.044). This two-year grant, effective from October 1, 2024, to September 30, 2026, will fund a wide range of supportive services for older adults across New Jersey, including nutrition assistance (home-delivered and congregate meals), transportation, health promotion, caregiver support, elder rights protection, adult protective services, and long-term care ombudsman programs. The Department frequently sub-awards portions of the grant to local Area Agencies on Aging, non-profit organizations, and community service providers to deliver these essential services at the community level.
