About this opportunity

The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Community Living (ACL) is issuing a cooperative agreement funding opportunity titled "Advancing State Implementation of the National Strategy to Support Family Caregivers." This grant seeks to support state-level implementation of the principles, recommendations, and actions outlined in the 2022 National Strategy to Support Family Caregivers. Eligible applicants are limited to state governments, specifically State Units on Aging, who must partner with their state Developmental Disabilities agency and at least one other state agency. Applicants must focus on at least 3 of the 5 goals from the National Strategy and demonstrate a statewide collaborative approach. The application deadline is August 6, 2024.

ACL will award up to four cooperative agreements of $450,000 to $490,000 each for a 24-month project period. The anticipated project start date is September 2, 2024. Successful grantees will use the first three months for planning and coordination with project partners before focusing on implementation and execution of their proposals for the remainder of the two-year project.

Synopsis

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to implement the demonstration authority in Section 373(i) of the Older Americans Act of 1965, as amended (OAA). Successful grantees will use the framework provided by the 2022 National Strategy to Support Family Caregivers (the Strategy) as the basis for their proposed projects. Under this NOFO, ACL is interested in supporting state implementation of the principles, recommendations and actions as stated in the Strategy. Grantees will be expected to develop a range of cross-agency partnerships at the state level to identify which of the Strategy's goals, recommendations and stated actions they wish to address on a statewide basis. Up to, but not to exceed, the first three months of their projects, grantees will be permitted to undertake a period of planning and coordination with project partners. At the end of the planning period, grantees must submit a sustainability plan detailing how project activities and accomplishments will be maintained and continued following the period of federal funding. During the remainder of their two-year projects, grantees will focus on implementation and execution of their proposals.
