About this opportunity

This cooperative agreement from the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Community Living seeks to support projects enhancing quality, effectiveness and outcomes of nutrition services for older adults. Eligible applicants include state and local governments, tribal organizations, nonprofits and institutions of higher education to foster innovation and collaboration between nutrition programs and senior centers funded by the Older Americans Act. Applications are due May 6, 2024 and will be evaluated based on goals of improving coordination between senior nutrition programs and centers, identifying and sharing best practices, and expanding efforts to modernize senior center programming.

Anticipated awards include $4.8 million over four years, with up to $1.8 million available for the first year and up to $1 million for subsequent years. Projects must operate nationally and require a 25% cost share. The funding is assigned to the Special Programs for the Aging, Title III, Part C, Nutrition Services program to provide grants supporting nutrition services including nutritious meals, nutrition education and other appropriate nutrition services for older adults nationally.

Synopsis

The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support projects which enhance the quality, effectiveness and proven outcomes of nutrition services programs within the aging services network. The Older Americans Act (OAA) provides funding to States and Tribal Organizations to support a broad array of services that enable older adults to remain in their homes and communities and assist family and informal caregivers to care for their loved ones for as long as possible. More information is located here: https://acl.gov/programs/health-wellness/nutrition-services. Through this program, funds will be used to foster the development, testing and replication of innovative service delivery models, policies and partnerships that improve collaboration and coordination between OAA nutrition programs and multi-purpose senior centers. Projects proposed under this grant program must have the potential for broad implementation throughout the aging services network.
