Opportunity Summary:

The "Alzheimers Disease Supportive Services Program Innovation Cooperative Agreements to Better Serve People with Alzheimer" funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2010-AOA-AI-1012) was a discretionary grant program released by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration on Aging (AoA). Its core goal was to help states move beyond small, stand-alone demonstrations and instead embed innovative, proven, and promising supportive service practices for people living with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), along with their families and caregivers, directly into statewide health, aging, and long-term care systems. In practical terms, the program aimed to make dementia-capable supports part of how state service systems routinely operate, rather than treating them as special projects that disappear when a pilot ends.

This opportunity used a cooperative agreement funding instrument, which typically signals a closer working relationship between the federal agency and award recipients than a standard grant. Under a cooperative agreement, the awardee still carries out the project, but the federal program office often has substantial involvement through guidance, technical assistance, and expectations around planning, implementation, and reporting. The AoA positioned these awards as a way to accelerate adoption of innovative practices across states, strengthen the capacity of public systems to meet dementia-related needs, and improve how supportive services are coordinated and delivered for individuals with ADRD and the people who care for them.

Funding was relatively targeted and structured. The program anticipated making up to 10 awards with an estimated total federal funding amount of $500,000. Each award was set at a fixed level, with both the award ceiling and award floor listed as $200,000, suggesting that individual award amounts were intended to be consistent rather than variable. The opportunity also required cost sharing or matching, meaning states needed to contribute non-federal resources to support the project. The activity category was listed under Income Security and Social Services, and the related CFDA listing was 93.051, "Alzheimers Disease Demonstration Grants to States," which reflects the broader federal assistance line associated with state-level dementia demonstrations and supportive service improvements.

Eligibility was primarily aimed at state and territorial government entities, specifically instrumentalities of state or territorial government. The listing also notes "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," but the explicit eligibility information emphasizes state/territorial agencies or their instrumentalities, indicating the program was designed to work through state systems rather than directly funding nonprofits or local providers as primary applicants. The focus on state agencies aligns with the overall objective of embedding practices into state-level health and long-term care infrastructure, policies, and service delivery networks.

Key administrative details show that the opportunity was posted on March 15, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 10, 2010, and it was archived on June 9, 2010. Applicants seeking the full announcement were directed to AoA's grants funding webpage, and the contact person listed for access issues was Jane Tilly (jane.tilly@aoa.hhs.gov). Overall, the grant can be summarized as a 2010 AoA initiative to help states implement and institutionalize innovative dementia supportive service approaches, backed by cooperative agreements, required matching funds, and a clear emphasis on system-level integration rather than isolated, short-term program pilots.
