Grant Description: In Fiscal Year (FY) 2003, the Administration on Aging (AoA) and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) formed a historic partnership to launch the Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC) demonstration grant initiative. The goal of the ADRC program is to empower individuals to make informed choices and to streamline access to long-term support services. AoA and CMS share a vision to have Resource Centers in every community serving as highly visible and trusted places where people of all ages can turn for information on the full range of long-term support options and a single point of entry to public long-term support programs and benefits. ADRCs are a resource for both public and private-pay individuals. They serve older adults, younger individuals with disabilities, family caregivers, as well as persons planning for future long-term support needs. ADRCs are also a resource for health and long-term support professionals and others who provide services to older adults and to people with disabilities. Since FY 2003, 43 states have received three year grants from AoA and CMS to design and implement ADRC demonstrations serving the elderly and at least one other target population of adults with disabilities in at least one community. An ADRC Program Announcement published in FY 2003 resulted in the funding of twelve states that year with an additional twelve states funded to develop ADRC programs in FY 2004. Nineteen additional states were funded to develop ADRC programs based on a Program Announcement published in FY 2005. To view the Program Announcements published in FY 2003 and FY 2005 go to http://www.aoa.gov/prof/aging_dis/background.asp. For more information on the 43 funded ADRC projects go to www.adrc-tae.org. ADRC grantees funded in FY 2004 will complete the three-year funding period in FY 2007. AoA and CMS believe streamlined access to long-term support options, as embodied in the ADRC model, is a critical component of states' efforts to reform long-term care systems, such that a reliance on institutional care is shifted to focus on support in home- and community-based settings. AoA and CMS further recognize effective and enduring systems change may take many years to accomplish. This Program Announcement is designed to provide supplemental support to states funded to develop ADRC programs in FY 2004 to assist these states in creating enduring systems change through the establishment of "one-stop" access to long-term supports and services.
