Applicants Eligible for this Grant: Nonprofits having a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education - Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification)
Additional Information on Eligibility: National non-profit organization with at least five years demonstrated successful experience and expertise in providing technical assistance to State Units on Aging, area agencies on aging and community-level aging services providers related to the implementation of chronic disease prevention programs targeted to older adults.
Grant Description: As of February 2010, there were 24 AoA funded states operating Evidence-Based Disease and Disability Prevention (EBDP) programs. The infrastructure for delivering evidence-based programs includes 1,200 community-based delivery sites; national training and certification programs; a national resource center on evidence-based prevention programs for the elderly; local program training materials, guides and marketing materials; quality assurance mechanisms and fidelity protocols. The national resource center helps state grantees develop the workforce and systems to deliver EBDP. Consistent with the President Obama's and the Department of Health and Human Services prevention initiatives, such as the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act Communities Putting Prevention to Work initiative, this funding opportunity will further the goal to build and sustain the infrastructure of the national delivery system that provides EBDP programs. The primary objective of this proposal is to support a national resource center that works with AoA, current and future state grantees to deliver EBDP programs such as, but not limited to, falls management and prevention, physical activity, nutrition and diet, depression and substance abuse programs. The national resource center will also support the continued growth of partnership activities at both the State and community level. This opportunity will allow for further advancement of collaborations with State Units on Aging and State Health Departments on the provision of health policy leadership, and the on-going strengthening of local partnerships involving Area Agencies on Aging, local Departments of Public Health, non-profit aging services providers, health and health insurance organizations, and other partners from the private and public sectors.
