Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2008 AOA CONT BP) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration on Aging (AoA). It is specifically designed as a continuation or support action for an existing, already-approved AoA project rather than a competition for brand-new project ideas. In other words, the core intent is to provide ongoing federal assistance to current grantees or project operators who are seeking to continue work that has previously been reviewed and authorized under AoA programming.
The program falls under the activity category of Income Security and Social Services and is tied to CFDA 93.048, Special Programs for the Aging, Title IV and Title II Discretionary Projects. The use of a cooperative agreement indicates that AoA expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond standard grant oversight, meaning recipients should anticipate active federal engagement such as collaboration with a federal project officer, involvement in shaping certain deliverables, or coordinated reporting and performance management.
Funding for the opportunity is estimated at $1,599,380 total, with an anticipated eight awards. Individual awards are expected to range from a floor of $149,380 to a ceiling of $250,000. The opportunity includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants should be prepared to document non-federal contributions and explain how matching funds will be secured, tracked, and applied to project costs in compliance with federal requirements.
Eligibility is limited and purposefully narrow. Applicants must already have an existing approved project in order to submit a continuation application. The eligibility category is listed as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," but the key requirement provided in the announcement is that only organizations with an approved existing project are eligible to apply. This makes the opportunity essentially a continuation mechanism for current projects rather than an open call to the general public, new nonprofits, or first-time applicants.
Key dates show the posting date as April 21, 2008, with a closing date of May 9, 2008. Applications were required to be submitted through Grants.gov by midnight Eastern Time on the due date. The archive date is June 8, 2008, and the title references a June 1, 2008 start date, signaling an intention for awards to begin relatively quickly after the application and review process, consistent with continuation funding timelines where projects are already underway.
For applicants needing assistance accessing the full announcement or dealing with submission issues, the listed point of contact is Donald Grantt, Project Officer, reachable by phone at 202-357-3447.
