The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Community Living seeks applicants for a cooperative agreement to operate the National Center on Elder Abuse Resource Center, with a forecasted posting but no stated application deadline. Only individuals are eligible to apply; non-USA citizens must provide documentation of eligibility to receive research funding directly from a U.S. federal agency.

The cooperative agreement funds the National Center on Elder Abuse to improve national, state, and local preparation to prevent, identify, and intervene in elder abuse, neglect, and exploitation. The NCEA delivers web-based, downloadable, and in-person information, resources, and training to professionals and the public on best practices for preventing and responding to elder maltreatment, frauds, and scams.
The opportunity is assigned to CFDA 93.048, Special Programs for the Aging, Title IV, and Title II, Discretionary Projects, which supports demonstration and replication of innovative programs and services, program evaluation, applied research and analysis, and training and technical assistance to aging services professionals. Evaluation criteria emphasize documented need, expected outcomes and benefits, innovative approach, level of effort, involvement of community-based organizations in planning and implementation, and projects benefiting disadvantaged groups including low-income, minority, and limited English-speaking populations.

The program has distributed 2,533 total awards since 2001, obligating $2.3 billion in federal dollars combined with $2.43 billion in non-federal cost-share. Recent awards to the program have ranged from $450,000 to more than $20 million.
