Federal Formula Grant Award Summary

The Administration on Aging (AoA) awarded the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration (FSSA) $2,563,827 under the Special Programs for the Aging, Title III, Part B, Grants for Supportive Services and Senior Centers (CFDA 93.044) program effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2027. This formula grant supports the development and implementation of comprehensive, coordinated community-based service systems that enable older adults to maintain independence and remain integrated within their local communities. The funding is allocated through a statutory formula based on state population and senior demographics, with FSSA serving as the state agency responsible for approving and distributing funds to designated sub-state organizations.

Through this award, FSSA funds supportive services to older Americans, with sub-awards issued to Lifestream Services Inc. (doing business as Area 6 Council On Aging Inc.) on February 10, 2026. Lifestream Services Inc. utilizes these funds to deliver critical in-home and community-based services including transportation, delivered meals, homemaker assistance, adult day services, respite care, and congregate dining services. These supportive services are designed to maximize informal support networks and ensure that vulnerable older adults and individuals with disabilities receive necessary assistance to maintain their quality of life and independence within Indiana communities.
