Federal Grant Award Summary

The State of Wisconsin Department of Health Services received a $159,601 formula grant from the Administration on Aging (also known as the Administration for Community Living) under the Special Programs for the Aging, Title III, Part D, Disease Prevention and Health Promotion Services program (CFDA 93.043) effective October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2027. This non-competitive statutory formula award supports the development and strengthening of preventive health service and health promotion systems for older adults. The funding enables Wisconsin to deliver evidence-based disease prevention and health promotion services addressing key health domains including physical fitness, medication management, chronic disease self-management education, psychosocial behavioral health intervention, and condition-specific programs targeting HIV, arthritis, brain health, diabetes, falls prevention, depression, and chronic pain.

The State distributes these funds to designated sub-grantees including Milwaukee County (Department of Health and Human Services) and Dane County (City Hall) for direct service delivery at the local and county levels. Both sub-grantees, awarded funding on January 30, 2026, implement preventive health Title III, Part D programming within their respective jurisdictions. This award is part of a nationwide formula-based distribution made to all State Agencies on Aging, with individual allocations determined by statutory population-based formulas and subsequent approval of State Plans without competitive application processes.
