Federal Grant Award Summary

The Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians received a $136,000 Formula Grant award from the Department of Health and Human Services Administration on Aging under the Special Programs for the Aging, Title VI, Part A, Grants to Indian Tribes (CFDA 93.047) program. The award, dated April 1, 2026, with a completion date of March 31, 2029, supports the delivery of nutrition services, supportive services, and caregiver services to American Indian and Alaska Native populations aged 60 and older within the tribe's 11-county service area in western Oregon.

Under this three-year award, the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians will provide services comparable to those offered under Title III of the Older Americans Act to eligible tribal elders. The funding enables the tribe to maintain and expand its capacity to deliver culturally appropriate supportive and nutrition programs designed to enhance the quality of life for seniors within the tribal community. As a federally recognized Indian tribe with demonstrated experience managing complex federal funding mechanisms, the recipient organization is well-positioned to effectively administer and deliver these critical aging services.
