About this opportunity

The Administration for Community Living (ACL) is seeking to award one cooperative agreement to better understand and document the activities and expertise of the Aging Network, which includes Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs), Tribal Organizations, and other organizations, in delivering community-based services and supports to older adults and their caregivers. The primary goal is to increase ACL and the Aging Network's understanding of how these organizations are adapting and expanding services to meet the evolving needs of older adults and caregivers, with a focus on areas such as caregiving, housing, diversity, equity, and inclusion. The application deadline is June 5, 2024, and the anticipated project start date is September 1, 2024. Eligible applicants include domestic public or private non-profit entities such as state/local governments, tribal organizations, community-based organizations, and higher education institutions.

This opportunity will provide $250,000 per year for a 3-year project period. The place of performance for this cooperative agreement is not specified, but it is likely that the work will be conducted nationwide to capture the activities and expertise of the Aging Network across the country.

Synopsis

The Administration for Community Living (ACL) intends to award one cooperative agreement designed to better understand and address the needs of the Aging Network by documenting and reporting on Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs), Tribal Organizations, and other organizations activities and expertise in health and the delivery of community-based services and supports.The Aging Network reaches into every community in the nation, playing a vital role in strategic planning, program development and administration, and service delivery. To ensure that older Americans have access to high quality aging services, the Aging Network must constantly review its programs and explore ways to innovate and enhance program design and delivery. There is an ongoing need to understand and document the activities that are undertaken in the Aging Network as its members grow and advance to accommodate the ever-evolving needs of the communities they serve. This funding announcement seeks to broaden the knowledge base of the Aging Network around ACL priorities, such as caregiving, housing, diversity, equity, and inclusion, as well as other critical issues. The primary goal is to increase ACL and the Aging Network's understanding of how AAAs, Tribal Organizations, and other agencies as appropriate, are adapting, enhancing, and expanding services and supports to meet current and future needs of older adults and their caregivers.
