The Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) of Texas was awarded a $1,217,816 Formula Grant by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Community Living under the Special Programs for the Aging, Title III, Part D, Disease Prevention and Health Promotion Services program (CFDA 93.043). This grant, with a performance period from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2026, is designed to develop and strengthen preventive health services and health promotion systems for older adults in Texas.
The grant funding will allow HHSC to implement evidence-based disease prevention and health promotion initiatives through a network of designated State Agencies on Aging and Area Agencies on Aging. These services aim to improve the health and well-being of seniors by delivering targeted preventive health programs, nutrition assistance, and other supportive services across local communities in Texas. As the prime recipient, HHSC may sub-award portions of the funding to local governments, non-profit organizations, and other entities to deliver these services directly to the target population.
