Opportunity Summary:
The Alzheimers Disease Demonstration Grants to States (ADDGS) Program Evidence Based Intervention Grants to Better Serve People with Alzheimers Disease and Related Disorders (ADRD) is a discretionary federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Administration on Aging (AoA) designed to help states strengthen community-based supports for people living with dementia. The central idea is practical: states are asked to take service interventions that already have evidence behind them and show how those interventions can be turned into real, working programs delivered at the local level. The intent is to help people with Alzheimers disease and related disorders remain in their homes and communities for as long as possible by improving access to effective services through the Aging Services Network and its partner organizations.
This opportunity is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning AoA is expected to have an ongoing role beyond simply issuing funds. Projects are meant to demonstrate implementation in community settings, not just plan or study an approach. In other words, states are expected to translate proven interventions into service delivery models that can operate through existing aging and community service infrastructure, and then show that those models can be administered effectively at the community level.
Eligibility is limited by statute to agencies of State Government. Applications may come from a variety of state agencies, including but not limited to State Units on Aging (SUAs). However, if the applying agency is not the SUA, the application must show the support and active involvement of the SUA. That requirement signals that AoA wants these projects integrated with the state and local aging network rather than operating as isolated initiatives.
AoA anticipated making roughly 8 to 10 awards under this announcement. Awards were expected to average about 800,000 dollars to support a three-year project period, with an award ceiling of 800,000 dollars and a floor of 500,000 dollars. The funding listing is under CFDA 93.051 (Alzheimers Disease Demonstration Grants to States). The announcement also notes a cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants would need to plan for non-federal contributions as part of the overall project budget.
This grant competition was released in July 2008, with an application closing date of August 11, 2008, and an archive date of September 10, 2008. It falls under the federal activity category of Income Security and Social Services, reflecting its focus on service delivery and supports rather than biomedical research.
AoA also issued a second, parallel ADDGS program announcement at the same time for FY2008 funding: an innovative projects track titled Innovative Grant Projects to Better Serve People with Alzheimers Disease and Related Disorders (HHS 2008 AoA AI 0813). States were allowed to apply to either one of the two announcements or to both, depending on whether they wanted to focus on scaling evidence-based interventions, pursuing more novel approaches, or combining both strategies across different proposals.
For reference, the funding opportunity number for this evidence-based intervention track is HHS 2008 AoA AE 0812, and the program contact listed for access issues with the full announcement was Donald Grantt (donald.grantt@aoa.gov).
