Opportunity Summary:
The "Elder Care Locator - Existing Project" funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2009-AOA-CONT-IR) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration on Aging (AoA). It is designed specifically to continue an already operating Elder Care Locator project rather than launch a new initiative, which is why the announcement is labeled as an "Existing Project" and restricts eligibility to existing grantees. In practical terms, the competition is not open to new applicants; it is aimed at maintaining continuity of a service that is already in place and presumably meeting federal expectations.
This opportunity falls under the broader public purpose area of Income Security and Social Services, and it is tied to CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number 93.048, "Special Programs for the Aging - Title IV and Title II Discretionary Projects." The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, meaning the federal government expects to have substantial involvement in the funded work beyond what would typically occur under a standard grant. While the announcement excerpt does not describe program activities in detail, the title indicates support for the Elder Care Locator, a national resource intended to help older adults, caregivers, and families connect to services and supports.
The funding level is substantial and narrowly bounded, with an award floor of $750,000 and an award ceiling of $812,176, and the agency anticipated making one award total. The presence of a cost sharing or matching requirement means the recipient must contribute a portion of project costs from non-federal sources, although the excerpt does not specify the percentage or acceptable sources. Key dates show the opportunity was posted on January 23, 2009, created on February 23, 2009, and had an application deadline of May 29, 2009. The archive date was June 28, 2009, indicating the opportunity is no longer active.
Eligibility is explicitly limited to "Existing Grantees," with the general eligible applicant category listed as "Others" and a note to see additional eligibility text (not included here) for clarification. That combination typically signals a continuation or non-competitive renewal framework where only the current project operator is permitted to apply, reinforcing that this is a continuation award to support uninterrupted operation of an established national service.
