Federal Formula Grant Award Summary

The Association of Village Council Presidents (AVCP) received a $206,840 formula grant award from the Administration on Aging under the Special Programs for the Aging, Title VI, Part A, Grants to Indian Tribes (CFDA 93.047) program, effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2029. This three-year award funds the delivery of supportive services, nutrition services, and caregiver services to American Indian and Alaska Native populations aged 60 and older in Alaska, with a specific focus on serving eligible tribal members in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region where AVCP operates.

As a tribally owned nonprofit consortium representing 56 Alaska Native tribes, AVCP will utilize this funding to provide services comparable to those offered under Title III of the Older Americans Act. The award supports AVCP's capacity to deliver comprehensive elder services tailored to remote Alaska Native communities, leveraging the organization's established infrastructure and regional expertise. Award recipients under this program must maintain all records and financial reports for three years after submission of final expenditure reports and are subject to federal audit requirements if annual expenditures exceed $750,000.
