Federal Grant Award Summary

The Chippewa Cree Tribe of the Rocky Boy Reservation received a $136,000 Formula Grant award dated April 1, 2026, from the Administration on Aging under the Special Programs for the Aging, Title VI, Part A, Grants to Indian Tribes program (CFDA 93.047). The award, with a completion date of March 31, 2029, supports the delivery of nutrition services, supportive services, and caregiver support to American Indian elders aged 60 and older within the tribe's service area. These services are designed to be comparable to those provided under Title III of the Older Americans Act.

The funding enables the Chippewa Cree Tribe to maintain and expand critical support infrastructure for its elder population, addressing nutrition, health, and social service needs within the Montana-based tribal community. As a formula grant under this program, the award amount is determined by statutory allocation formulas and reflects the tribe's eligible elder population and demonstrated capacity to deliver the specified services. The tribe is required to maintain all program and financial records for three years following final expenditure report submission and must meet performance standards to support potential future renewals.
