About this opportunity

This federal grant opportunity, titled "Advancing Strategies to Deliver and Sustain Evidence-Based Chronic Disease Self-Management Education Programs to Support Older Adult Behavioral Health," is being offered by the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Community Living (ACL). The purpose is to develop and implement multi-faceted strategies that support the delivery and sustainability of evidence-based chronic disease self-management education (CDSME) programs for older adults with behavioral health conditions. Key requirements include establishing cross-sector partnerships, developing trainings and tools for aging/behavioral health professionals, and creating a toolkit to guide replication efforts. Applications are due by February 19, 2025, with an informational conference call scheduled for December 19, 2024.

The ACL plans to award 3 cooperative agreements, with individual awards ranging from $1.1-1.25 million for a total funding pool of $6,203,143 over a 3-year project period. The program requires grantees to reach 25% of target participants by the end of Year 1, 50% by Year 2, and 100% by Year 3, while providing person-centered and culturally appropriate CDSME services to older adults and individuals with disabilities who have behavioral health conditions.

Synopsis

The purpose of this funding opportunity is to develop and implement multi-faceted strategies that support the delivery and sustainability of evidence-based chronic disease self-management education (CDSME) programs for older adults (age 60 and older) and individuals with disabilities with one or more behavioral health conditions and older adults and individuals with disabilities with one or more stressors that are negatively impacting their behavioral health through a statewide initiative. The two primary goals are: Goal 1: Through a statewide initiative, develop capacity (e.g., instructors, partnerships, and referral networks) to increase the number of older adults and adults with disabilities in the target population who participate in evidence-based chronic disease self-management education (CDSME) and support programs.Goal 2: Develop and disseminate 508-compliant resources specific to your grant learnings to enhance knowledge in serving the target population and aid in the sustainability of programs.Successful applicants will also be expected to (a) Increase the number of individuals who participate in evidence-based CDSME programs, while reaching the grant's target population; (b) Increase partnerships and collaboration between the Aging and Disability Services Network, behavioral health providers, and other key organizations; and (c) Increase the knowledge of the field by developing and disseminating resources and learnings from your grant for other organizations to replicate similar projects in their communities.The Administration on Aging (AoA), part of the Administration for Community Living (ACL), plans to award 5 cooperative agreements with a three-year project period, subject to availability of funds.
