Opportunity Summary:
The Pension Information Counseling grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2008 AOA CONT PC) is a discretionary grant program administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration on Aging (AoA), under CFDA 93.048 (Special Programs for the Aging, Title IV and Title IID Discretionary Projects). It is specifically described as an existing project, meaning it is intended to continue or support ongoing work rather than launch a brand-new initiative. The funding activity category is Income Security and Social Services, which aligns with helping people, often older adults, better understand and secure retirement-related benefits and protections.
This opportunity anticipated making 5 awards with an estimated total funding amount of $787,500. The award structure is fixed: both the award ceiling and award floor are listed as $157,500, indicating each award was expected to be $157,500 rather than ranging widely by applicant or project scale. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, so recipients would be expected to contribute non-federal resources in addition to the federal grant funds, consistent with many AoA discretionary projects that require some level of local or organizational investment.
Eligibility is limited and narrowly defined. While the Eligible Applicants field references "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the EligibilityInformation line clarifies the intent: eligibility is for an existing grantee. In practical terms, that means this was not an open competition for new organizations; it was primarily a continuation opportunity for an organization already funded under the project.
The opportunity was posted on April 22, 2008, with the same creation date, and it had an original and current closing date of June 10, 2008. The archive date is July 10, 2008, reflecting when the opportunity materials were slated to be removed from active listings or moved into an archived status after the application period concluded.
For applicant support or issues accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed contact is Valerie Soroka, identified as the project officer, reachable by phone at (202) 357-3531.
