What the grant funds

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to implement the demonstration authority in Section 373(i) of the Older Americans Act of 1965, as amended (OAA), using the framework provided by the Recognize, Assist, Include, Support, and Engage (RAISE) Family Caregivers Act and the 2022 National Strategy to Support Family Caregivers (the Strategy). Specifically, this project seeks to: 1) better understand the extent to which caregiver/care navigator services are used in the programs and entities funded under Title III-E of the OAA; 2) design and test new materials and methods for delivering these services; and 3) evaluate the effectiveness and opportunities for scaling and replicating them. ACL will award one cooperative agreement to a single entity to undertake activities of a national scope and reach. The project will last for a duration of 36 months, with three, 12-month budget periods. The amount of federal funds available will be up to approximately $882,000 per year, pending availability of federal funds. The intended recipients of the technical assistance developed in this project are those entities typically involved with implementing and operating programs funded by the OAA, including state units on aging (SUAs); area agencies on aging (AAAs); local aging services and family caregiver support providers; kinship, grandparent and grandfamily services providers; tribes and tribal entities, and other entities that may be part of the aging and/or tribal services networks. Additionally, given the NFCSP’s inclusion of family caregivers of individuals with early onset-dementia and older relative caregivers supporting adults with disabilities, ACL desires that proposals identify how these populations will also be included in the work.
