The $104,563 Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Community Living's Special Programs for the Aging, Title III, Part D, Disease Prevention and Health Promotion Services program (CFDA 93.043) supports the delivery of evidence-based preventive health and health promotion services for older adults in West Virginia.
The grant recipient, the Senior Services West Virginia Bureau, will use the funding to implement various initiatives that aim to improve the health and well-being of seniors across the state. This includes providing congregate and home-delivered meals, nutrition education, transportation, information and referrals, in-home care, and long-term care ombudsman oversight. The Bureau also partners with the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources to coordinate the delivery of home and community-based services, improve access to long-term care, and maintain statewide ombudsman operations. Recent grant-funded projects have focused on home modification, elder abuse prevention, and strengthening the system for accessing long-term services and supports in West Virginia.
