Federal Grant Award Summary

The Spokane Tribe of the Spokane Reservation received a $109,120 formula grant award from the Department of Health and Human Services 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 tribe's jurisdiction. This funding enables the tribe to provide services comparable to those offered under Title III of the Older Americans Act, meeting the critical needs of tribal elder populations.

As a federally recognized Indian tribe with demonstrated capacity in community service delivery, the Spokane Tribe utilizes this formula grant funding to enhance and expand its elder care infrastructure. The three-year performance period allows for sustained service provision and program development tailored to the cultural and geographic needs of the tribal community. All program records, financial reports, and payment management records must be maintained for three years following submission of final expenditure reports in accordance with Administration on Aging regulations.
