Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Unsolicited - Existing Project," was offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration on Aging (AoA). It was a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, which typically means the awarding agency expected to have substantial involvement in how the funded work is carried out, beyond what is common in a standard grant. The program area is listed under "Income Security and Social Services," and the funding was associated with CFDA 93.048, "Special Programs for the Aging - Title IV and Title IID Discretionary Projects," which generally supports discretionary aging-related initiatives under the Older Americans Act framework.
The opportunity was specifically designed for an existing project rather than new applicants proposing entirely new work. Eligibility was limited to existing grantees, meaning only organizations already holding an AoA award connected to this project were intended to apply, and the listing indicates that additional eligibility clarification would have been provided in the full announcement. In other words, this was not an open competition to the general public; it functioned more like a continuation, extension, or modification funding path for a currently funded effort.
Funding details were straightforward and tightly defined. AoA expected to make one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $200,000. Both the award ceiling and award floor were also $200,000, indicating the single anticipated award amount was effectively fixed at that level rather than offered as a range. The opportunity also required cost sharing or matching, so the recipient was expected to contribute non-federal resources (cash and/or allowable in-kind contributions) according to the terms described in the full solicitation.
Key dates show this as a time-limited, archived opportunity from 2009. It was posted and created on January 30, 2009, with an original and current closing date of April 30, 2009. The archive date was May 30, 2009, meaning after that point it was treated as no longer active for application purposes. The funding opportunity number was "HHS 2009 AOA CONT UN," which signals an HHS opportunity administered by AoA and likely related to a continuation ("CONT") for an unsolicited existing project.
For applicant support, the listing provided a point of contact for access issues with the full announcement: Rodd Clay, Grants Policy Specialist, at (202) 357-3463 or rodd.clay@aoa.hhs.gov. This contact was specifically framed for help if someone had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, which suggests that the formal requirements, match details, and project-specific continuation instructions were primarily contained in the full solicitation document rather than in the brief summary fields.
