Formula Grant 2607OKOATA

The Citizen Potawatomi Nation received a formula grant award of $206,840 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, effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2029, supports the delivery of nutrition services, supportive services, and caregiver services to American Indian elders aged 60 and older within the Nation's service area in central Oklahoma.

Under this three-year grant period, the Citizen Potawatomi Nation will provide comprehensive aging services comparable to those available under Title III of the Older Americans Act. The funding enables the Nation to continue its established capacity as a tribal service provider, delivering essential programs designed to improve quality of life and support self-determination for tribal elders and seniors. As a federally recognized Indian tribe with demonstrated experience managing federal grant programs across multiple agencies and service areas, the Nation is well-positioned to meet the program's requirement of serving at least 50 American Indians aged 60 or older while maintaining required program records and financial documentation throughout the three-year performance period.
