Opportunity Summary:

The Senior Legal Services grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2008 AOA CONT SL) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration on Aging (AoA). It is labeled as an "existing project," meaning it is intended to continue or support work that is already underway rather than launching a brand-new program. The funding activity falls under the category of Income Security and Social Services and is tied to CFDA 93.048, Special Programs for the Aging, under Title IV and Title II Discretionary Projects. In practical terms, this places the opportunity within federal aging-services initiatives, with a focus on maintaining or strengthening legal service supports for older adults through established AoA-funded efforts.

This opportunity anticipated making 13 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,304,625. Individual awards were expected to range from a floor of $92,000 up to a ceiling of $115,043. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the funded project compared with a standard grant. That can include ongoing coordination, technical guidance, or other forms of programmatic participation by AoA staff during the project period, consistent with cooperative agreement practices.

Cost sharing or matching is required, so recipients would need to contribute non-federal resources toward the total project costs in accordance with the award terms. The eligible applicant pool is limited: applicants must be existing grantees, and the listing indicates eligibility is further clarified in the announcement text under "Additional Information on Eligibility." As a result, this is not an open competition for new organizations; it is structured as a continuation opportunity for organizations already funded under the relevant AoA legal services project framework.

Key dates show the announcement was posted and created on April 22, 2008, with an original and current closing date of May 9, 2008, and an archive date of June 8, 2008. For access issues or questions about the full announcement, the listed contact is Valerie Soroka (Project Officer) at 202-357-3531.
