Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2023 ACL AOA CGPS 0058
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through the Administration for Community Living (ACL), offered a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Advancing Aging Network Capacity to Recognize and Support Family, Kinship and Tribal Caregivers" (Funding Opportunity Number: HHS-2023-ACL-AOA-CGPS-0058; CFDA 93.052). The core purpose is to strengthen and modernize caregiver support efforts across the national aging network by using the 2022 National Strategy to Support Family Caregivers as the primary roadmap. In practical terms, ACL is aiming to help state, community, and tribal caregiver programs funded under the Older Americans Act (notably the National Family Caregiver Support Program under Title III-E and the Native American Caregiver Support Program under Title VI-C) better reflect the Strategy's principles so these programs can more effectively recognize, include, assist, support, and engage family caregivers, including kinship and tribal caregivers.
ACL planned to award up to five cooperative agreements, each running for four years, with an award ceiling of $1,100,000 per grant. Because these are cooperative agreements (not standard grants), awardees would not operate independently; they would work in close coordination with ACL staff, especially an ACL Program Officer, and would align their activities with the Strategy as well as its companion guidance document, "First Principles Cross-Cutting Considerations for Family Caregiver Support." The intent is not just to fund services in one location, but to build national-level capacity by developing, testing, and then widely disseminating approaches that can be used across states, communities, and tribes. This includes creating and spreading technical assistance models, capacity-building tools, and best practices that can strengthen caregiver support systems at scale.
A key structural feature of the opportunity is that there is one award tied to each of the Strategy's five priority goals. Those five focus areas are: (1) increasing awareness and outreach so caregivers better understand what help exists and how to access it; (2) advancing partnerships and engagement with care teams, meaning stronger coordination among caregivers, health care providers, community organizations, and other parts of the support system; (3) advancing services and supports, with an emphasis on improving the availability, quality, and effectiveness of caregiver assistance; (4) strengthening financial and workplace security, addressing the economic pressures and employment challenges caregivers often face; and (5) solidifying a national research and data collection agenda for family caregiving, improving what is measured and learned so policies and programs can be guided by stronger evidence. ACL indicated that no single entity could receive more than one grant, reinforcing that each award is meant to concentrate expertise and leadership in a specific priority area while still contributing to a shared national initiative.
Applicants could come from a wide range of eligible entities, reflecting the cross-sector nature of caregiving policy and practice. Eligibility included various levels of government (state, county, city/township, and special districts), independent school districts, public and private institutions of higher education, federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, and nonprofit organizations both with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions where noted). ACL emphasized that applicants for each priority area should already be well-positioned, with demonstrated experience and sufficient capacity to lead national-level advancements related to that goal. In other words, the awards were designed for organizations capable of shaping tools, guidance, and scalable models that others can adopt, rather than organizations only positioned to run local direct services.
Coordination expectations were central to how the projects would function. Grantees were expected to closely collaborate with one another so the work across all five priority areas stays aligned, complementary, and grounded in shared principles. They were also expected to work in close coordination with a new Technical Assistance and Coordinating Center for Family Caregiver Support and Best Practices that ACL was establishing at the same time. In addition, projects could be asked to coordinate with other ACL-funded technical assistance centers and related collaborative initiatives as resources allowed, creating an interconnected support ecosystem rather than separate, siloed projects.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted with a creation date of April 26, 2023, and an original closing date of June 25, 2023, with applications required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. ACL anticipated making five awards total, consistent with the one-award-per-priority design. Overall, the opportunity was structured to accelerate national progress in caregiver support by funding a small set of highly focused, collaborative leaders to produce practical, transferable methods that strengthen how the aging network and tribal aging programs identify caregivers, connect them to resources, integrate them into care planning, support their well-being and economic stability, and improve the evidence base driving future caregiver policy and program decisions.Apply for HHS 2023 ACL AOA CGPS 0058
