The Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) Office of Grants Management awarded the County of Orange $287,895 under the AmeriCorps Seniors Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP, CFDA 94.002) for the period of April 1, 2021 through March 31, 2024. Under this Project Grant, the County of Orange's Orange County RSVP program, sponsored by the Orange County Office for the Aging, will utilize an estimated 525 RSVP volunteers each year to address community needs aligned with the RSVP's national performance measures in the focus areas of healthy futures, economic opportunity, environmental stewardship, and capacity building. Specifically, 284 volunteers will deliver meals to homebound seniors, provide transportation and companionship, conduct home visits and shopping assistance for isolated seniors, and support emergency food distribution. By the end of the three-year grant period, RSVP volunteers are expected to deliver 738,000 meals to seniors, assist 1,071 seniors with medical transportation, provide visits or companionship to 540 seniors, contribute to food security for 2,100 households, and provide access to care information to 1,000 seniors. The $75k annual CNCS investment will be supplemented by $40,048 in anticipated non-federal leveraged resources.
