Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2022 ACL AOA ADPI 0087
The grant opportunity "Supporting State and Community Innovations in Dementia-Specific Respite Programs and Services" is a national initiative from the Administration on Aging (AoA) within the Administration for Community Living (ACL), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Its central purpose is to expand access to dementia-specific respite care so people living with dementia (of any age) and their caregivers can get practical support that helps them continue living at home and in their communities. The project is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the federal agency expects to have an active partnership role with the awardee rather than simply issuing funds with minimal involvement. The overall emphasis is on community-based, non-medical respite approaches that can be tested, improved, and spread more widely through training and technical support.
ACL intends to fund one awardee to operate this effort at a national scale for five years (60 months). The planned funding level is up to $5,000,000 per year, pending availability of federal funds, with an expected total potential scope of up to $25,000,000 across the project period. The recipient is expected to do two major things at once: first, help develop and test innovative models of dementia-specific respite services in real community settings; and second, deliver training and technical assistance (TTA) that strengthens the ability of agencies across the aging services network and related community-based systems to deliver dementia-competent respite and supportive services.
Program activities are organized into two required priority areas with clear budget expectations. Priority Area 1 focuses on training and technical assistance and can use up to 20 percent of each annual budget. Under this priority, the grantee is expected to build and implement a comprehensive TTA program that improves the readiness and quality of community-based organizations to plan, launch, expand, and sustain dementia-specific respite programs and related caregiver supports. In practical terms, this could include developing toolkits and curricula, providing coaching to local providers, hosting learning collaboratives, supporting quality improvement efforts, and helping organizations address common implementation challenges such as staffing, dementia-capable practices, caregiver engagement, safety considerations, and culturally appropriate service delivery.
Priority Area 2 must receive not less than 80 percent of each annual budget and is centered on advancing and delivering innovative community-based dementia-specific respite care models. This is where the initiative pushes service innovation on the ground: increasing the availability of dementia-specific respite in states and communities by developing and implementing new models, testing what works in different environments, and demonstrating approaches that can be replicated elsewhere. The respite models supported are explicitly framed as non-medical care designed to assist caregivers and the person living with dementia, with the bigger goal of reducing caregiver strain and making it more feasible for families to keep loved ones at home rather than moving prematurely to institutional settings.
A key feature of this opportunity is that it is national in scope even though services will be implemented in states and communities. The single cooperative agreement recipient is expected to function as a hub that both drives innovation through model development and field testing and also raises national capacity through technical assistance. The intent is not simply to fund respite slots in one location, but to strengthen the broader system so more agencies across the country can deliver dementia-specific respite effectively. That includes helping the aging services network and community partners adopt and scale approaches that are proven or promising, and ensuring that learning from the initiative is shared widely.
Eligibility is broad and includes state, county, and city or township governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; and nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions where specified). The opportunity is listed under CFDA (Assistance Listing) 93.470 and is categorized under Income Security and Social Services. The funding opportunity number is HHS-2022-ACL-AOA-ADPI-0087, created April 26, 2022, with an original application deadline of June 27, 2022 (electronically submitted applications due by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time).
