Opportunity Summary:
The Older Indians National Resource Center grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2008-AOA-CONT-OI) was a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration on Aging (AoA), focused on income security and social services for older American Indians. It was offered as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the federal agency expected to have an active role during the project period, such as providing ongoing oversight, coordination, and technical input rather than simply issuing a one-time award with minimal involvement.
This opportunity was not a new-start competition. It was labeled as an "Existing Project" continuation, and eligibility was restricted to current grantees already operating the project. In other words, organizations that were not already funded under the specific existing project were not eligible to apply. The "Eligible Applicants" field points to "Others (see text field...)," but the key clarifier provided is that an applicant needed to be an existing grantee of the existing project, effectively limiting submissions to incumbents seeking continued support.
AoA anticipated making up to three awards under this announcement. The estimated total funding available was $672,041, with individual awards ranging from a floor of $117,904 to a ceiling of $336,020. The program also required cost sharing or matching, meaning recipients would need to contribute non-federal resources toward the project as part of the award conditions, rather than relying entirely on federal dollars.
The announcement was posted on May 9, 2008, with an application closing date of June 5, 2008. It was later archived on July 5, 2008. The CFDA listing associated with the opportunity was 93.048, Special Programs for the Aging, Title IV and Title II Discretionary Projects, which is a common catalog entry used for AoA discretionary initiatives.
For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed contact was Meg Graves, Project Officer, reachable by phone at 202-357-3502.
