Federal Project Grant Award Summary

The Office of Grants Management awarded $140,889 to the Visiting Nurse Association of the Treasure Coast, Inc. on June 24, 2026, to support the 2026-27 AmeriCorps Seniors Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) (CFDA 94.002). This Project Grant funds senior volunteer initiatives in Florida that engage adults ages 55 and older in meaningful community service activities. The program will operate through March 31, 2029, with a required 10% non-federal match.

Under this award, the awardee will recruit, train, and manage senior volunteers to address critical community needs across multiple service areas including mentoring and tutoring children, supporting workforce development and job-readiness training, assisting with food security programs, providing disaster preparedness support, and serving veterans and military families. Volunteers will have flexibility in their service commitments, with options ranging from a few hours to 40 hours per week. The award supports the broader AmeriCorps Seniors RSVP program objective of keeping older adults civically engaged while simultaneously strengthening community capacity to address gaps in education, workforce development, health, and social services.
