Opportunity Summary:
This discretionary grant opportunity, titled "National Alzheimer's Call Center" (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2010 AOA AC 1010), was offered by the U.S. Administration on Aging under CFDA 93.048 (Special Programs for the Aging, Title IV and Title IID Discretionary Projects). The goal was to establish or operate a single nationwide call center focused on Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD), designed to serve people across all 56 states and U.S. territories. The call center was expected to operate continuously, meaning 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, and to function as a reliable, centralized point of contact for individuals with dementia, family members, caregivers, and others seeking help.
The services emphasized in the announcement center on practical, real-time support and navigation. The call center would provide expert advice and care consultation, along with accurate information and referrals. Importantly, the referral function was intended to work at both national and local levels, so callers could be directed not only to broad federal or national resources but also to state, territorial, tribal, and community-based services that match their needs. In practice, this kind of call center acts as a front door to the larger aging and dementia-support system, helping people understand symptoms and diagnoses, plan for caregiving, locate respite and support programs, and connect with appropriate clinical, social service, and caregiver resources.
Funding was structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically signals that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement with the awardee during the project period, such as collaboration on major decisions, oversight, or coordination with other federal efforts. The opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1), with an estimated total funding amount of $987,000. The award ceiling and floor were both listed as $987,000, indicating a fixed award amount rather than a range. Cost sharing or matching was required, meaning the applicant would need to contribute non-federal resources according to the terms laid out in the full announcement.
Eligibility was limited to domestic public or nonprofit entities that could demonstrate national reach into all states and also into territories, tribes, and localities. In other words, the applicant had to be capable of operating and coordinating services at a truly national scale, not just within one region. The opportunity was posted on February 24, 2010, created on April 15, 2010, and had an original closing date of April 12, 2010, later extended to April 26, 2010. The archive date was May 12, 2010. Additional details were provided through the Administration on Aging funding page, and technical access issues were directed to the listed contact, Amy Wiatr, with grants policy support noted.
