The Central Council Tlingit and Haida Indian Tribes of Alaska received a formula grant award of $206,840 from the Department of Health and Human Services Administration on Aging, effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2029. This award is issued under the Special Programs for the Aging, Title VI, Part A, Grants to Indian Tribes program (CFDA 93.047), which supports the delivery of supportive services, nutrition services, and caregiver services to American Indian, Alaskan Native, and Native Hawaiian populations aged 60 and older.

Under this three-year grant period, the awardee will provide services comparable to those offered under Title III of the Older Americans Act, serving Alaska Native elders in Southeast Alaska. The organization's comprehensive tribal infrastructure positions it to deliver these critical aging services while maintaining cultural relevance and addressing the unique needs of the tribal population. Grant funds support operational expenses and service delivery infrastructure necessary to maintain ongoing support for tribal elders, with all financial and program records subject to retention requirements for three years following final expenditure reporting.
