Opportunity Summary:
The Administration on Aging (AoA) announced a discretionary federal grant opportunity, issued as Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2011 AOA AA 1113, titled "Accelerating Integrated, Evidence Based, and Sustainable Service Systems for Older Adults, Individuals with Disabilities and Family Caregivers." The overall intent is to help states build and maintain a coordinated, statewide service system that better connects supports for older adults, people with disabilities, and family caregivers, with an emphasis on approaches that are integrated across programs, grounded in evidence, and designed to last beyond the grant period.
This opportunity uses a cooperative agreement funding instrument, meaning AoA expects a more active federal role than in a typical grant, with ongoing collaboration between the agency and the awardees as they implement the proposed system changes. The funding activity area is listed under Income Security and Social Services, and it is associated with CFDA 93.048 (Special Programs for the Aging, Title IV and Title II Discretionary Projects). The announcement describes this as an initial Funding Opportunity Announcement for this initiative and frames it as a limited competition.
Eligibility is restricted to State Units on Aging (SUAs), so only state government entities serving in that role may apply. AoA anticipated making awards to a relatively small number of applicants, approximately 4 to 7 states, to implement and sustain the statewide integrated service system described in the program announcement. A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants should be prepared to contribute non-federal resources in accordance with the terms laid out in the full announcement.
In terms of funding size and structure, AoA projected a total funding pool of about 9 million to 11.5 million dollars across all awards. Individual cooperative agreements were expected to range from 1.2 million (the award floor) to 3 million dollars (the award ceiling) for the full project period. The project period is three years, and the notice specifies that awards would be fully funded for the entire three-year period rather than funded one year at a time, with an anticipated start date of September 30, 2011.
Key administrative details include a posted date and creation date of June 9, 2011, and an application deadline (original and current closing date) of July 27, 2011. Additional information was provided through AoA's grants webpage, and the listed point of contact for access issues was Rebecca Mann (Rebecca.Mann@aoa.hhs.gov) in Grants Policy.
