2016 Senior Companion Program (SCP) Indian Tribes, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders Competition: Through this competition, the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) seeks to increase the impact of national service in Indian County by offering funding opportunities for new grants to Indian Tribes in geographic areas not currently served by SCP grantees. CNCS intends to fund SCP Tribal grants that support volunteers age 55 years and older in activities that serve community needs and respond to the SCP National Performance Measures and Elder Justice interventions to mitigate the potential that clients and caregivers served by Senior Companion volunteers will be victims of financial fraud, abuse, and/or neglect.
