Federal Formula Grant Award Summary

Award Overview The Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe received a $109,120 formula grant award effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2029, under the Special Programs for the Aging, Title VI, Part A, Grants to Indian Tribes program (CFDA 93.047), administered by the Administration on Aging. This three-year award supports the delivery of supportive services, nutrition services, and caregiver assistance to American Indian and Alaskan Native populations aged 60 and older within the tribe's jurisdiction in Nevada.

Services Delivered The grant funding enables the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe to provide aging services comparable to those offered under Title III of the Older Americans Act, with a focus on meeting the health and social needs of tribal elders. Grant recipients must demonstrate capacity to deliver both supportive services and nutrition programming to eligible populations, ensuring culturally appropriate service delivery that addresses the unique needs of Native American elder communities. The formula grant approach distributes federal resources based on the size of eligible elder populations across tribal jurisdictions, ensuring consistent and equitable funding for critical aging services nationwide.
