The Administration on Aging (AoA) awarded $206,840 in formula grant funding to the Aleutian Pribilof Islands Association, Inc. (APIA) under the Special Programs for the Aging, Title VI, Part A, Grants to Indian Tribes (CFDA 93.047) effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2029. This three-year award supports the delivery of nutrition services, supportive services, and caregiver services to American Indian and Alaskan Native populations aged 60 and older residing in the Aleutian and Pribilof Islands region of Alaska. APIA, a federally recognized tribal organization serving the Unangax (Aleut) people, will utilize the funding to provide services comparable to those delivered under Title III of the Older Americans Act.

The formula grant enables APIA to maintain and expand essential aging services tailored to the cultural needs of Aleut communities, including meal programs, in-home support, and caregiver assistance. As an established tribal government with demonstrated capacity to deliver supportive and nutrition services, APIA will maintain comprehensive program records and financial documentation throughout the award period in compliance with federal audit and reporting requirements.
