Aging and Disability Resource Center Grant Program: The AoA/CMS Resource Center grants program reflects and supports the values of individual choice, independence, self-determination and community living inherent in President Bush's New Freedom Initiative. The grants awarded under this program will be another tool the Federal government is making available to help states tear down barriers to community living and redirect their systems of support to be more consumer-driven and more supportive of home and community-based service options. Building a sustainable infrastructure to support streamlined access to community based services and long-term care reform constitute over-arching goals of this initiative. The essence of the ADRC program is not about offering new services or adding staff, but re-aligning infrastructure and orienting staff.
