Opportunity Summary:
The Disaster Assistance for State Units on Aging (SUAs) and Title VI Tribal Organizations Impacted by National Disasters Declared by the President grant is a discretionary federal funding opportunity run by the Administration on Aging (AoA) to help older-adult service networks recover from and respond to major disasters. The program is designed specifically to provide disaster reimbursement and assistance funding when a Presidentially declared national disaster has occurred. A key limitation is that the money can only be used in the geographic areas that are officially named in the President's Disaster Declaration, and it is meant to support disaster-related costs and needs tied to services for older adults.
Eligibility is narrowly targeted. Applicants must be either (1) State governments acting through their State Unit on Aging (SUA), or (2) federally recognized Tribal governments that are already receiving a Title VI grant under the Older Americans Act (OAA). In other words, this is not an open competition for new providers; it is intended for established OAA grantees that are already part of the aging services infrastructure and are dealing with the impact of a declared disaster. The funding falls under CFDA 93.048 (Special Programs for the Aging, Title IV and Title II Discretionary Projects), and the statutory authority comes from Title III of the Older Americans Act (42 U.S.C. 3030), as amended by the Older Americans Act Amendments of 2000 (P.L. 106-501).
The announcement emphasizes coordination and pre-application consultation. Eligible SUAs and Title VI grantees are expected to discuss any disaster assistance request with AoA Regional staff before submitting a formal application, including talking through the amount of funding to request. The agency encourages applicants to share a draft narrative justification in advance, since that can speed up review and award processing. Applicants are also urged to coordinate with state and local emergency managers to identify other potential disaster funding sources first, so OAA disaster funds are used appropriately and not redundantly.
Applications must be submitted electronically through Grants.gov. Applicants download the application package, complete it offline, then upload and submit it through the portal. The funding opportunity number is HHS-2013-ACL-DA-1301, and it was posted October 31, 2012, with an application closing date of September 13, 2013 (later archived October 13, 2013). The total estimated funding listed is $500,000, with an expected five awards. Individual awards were projected to range from $20,000 (floor) to $100,000 (ceiling). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated, which typically makes it easier for affected agencies and tribes to pursue support quickly during recovery.
