Federal Formula Grant Award Summary

The Administration on Aging awarded Louisiana Governor's Office of Elderly Affairs (GOEA) $111,134.00 under the Special Programs for the Aging, Title III, Part D, Disease Prevention and Health Promotion Services program (CFDA 93.043) for the fiscal year 2026 period. This award, effective October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2027, supports the development and strengthening of preventive health service and health promotion systems for older adults across Louisiana.

The funding enables GOEA to deliver evidence-based disease prevention and health promotion services through designated Area Agencies on Aging and community-based providers. Supported service areas include physical fitness programming, medication management education, chronic disease self-management education, psychosocial behavioral health interventions, and condition-specific initiatives addressing HIV, arthritis, brain health, diabetes, falls prevention, depression, and chronic pain. As a formula grant awarded on a non-competitive, statutory basis, this allocation is distributed through Louisiana's established network of aging service providers at the substate level to ensure comprehensive preventive health services reach seniors throughout the state.
