Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2023 ACL AOA HDRC 0060

The Strengthening Aging Services for Minority Populations Through Technical Assistance, Resource Development, and Program Coordination grant opportunity (HHS 2023 ACL AOA HDRC 0060) is a discretionary funding program from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Community Living (ACL). It is built around the idea that the older adult population is highly diverse in race, ethnicity, culture, and sexual orientation and gender identity, and that these differences can shape how easily someone can find and benefit from home and community-based services and other long-term care supports. The opportunity is grounded in the Older Americans Act (OAA), which requires that OAA-funded services prioritize people with the greatest economic and social need, including individuals who are further isolated due to race, ethnicity, or limited English proficiency. In practice, ACL is responding to a common gap: many aging and human services organizations want to serve diverse older adults well but need more training, tools, and structured support to do it consistently and effectively.

The announcement lays out two main objectives. First, grantees are expected to develop and share training and technical assistance that increases national capacity to address the multi-faceted needs of diverse older adults. The FOA highlights topic areas such as economic security, access to services, housing needs, self-advocacy, family and caregiver supports, and trauma-informed approaches, while also making clear that the scope is not limited to only those categories. The second objective focuses more on direct, practical service improvement: grantees should develop, test, and then disseminate approaches that agencies in the aging and human services networks can use when working one-on-one with diverse older adults, their families, and family caregivers. Taken together, the program is aiming not just to raise awareness, but to produce usable methods, resources, and support systems that change day-to-day service delivery.

In terms of who this work is meant to benefit, the FOA notes that the aging services network most frequently targets and serves older adults who identify as African American, Hispanic, Asian American and Pacific Islander, Native American, and LGBT. ACL is specifically seeking applications from national organizations that serve these populations, while also encouraging applicants to broaden the focus to include other diverse groups of older adults and their caregivers. The intent is to strengthen culturally appropriate and equitable service access across communities, especially where people face additional barriers linked to language, discrimination, isolation, or other social determinants that affect aging outcomes.

Awards will be made as cooperative agreements, which signals that ACL expects to be actively involved rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. An ACL program officer will work closely with each grantee to keep the project aligned with the FOA goals and to ensure coordination with a separate Coordination Center that will also be funded under the same overall plan. This emphasis on coordination is meant to reduce duplication, align resources, and build a more unified national approach to training, technical assistance, and promising practices for serving diverse older adults.

Performance measurement and accountability are explicit expectations. Successful applicants must set measurable performance goals and use indicators to track progress over time, with ACL providing examples of the kinds of goals and metrics commonly used for technical assistance resource center work funded by the Administration on Aging (AoA). Grantees and partners are also expected to participate in regular meetings and teleconferences with ACL staff to share updates, review accomplishments, and monitor progress toward the stated outcomes. Overall, ACL is looking for projects that can demonstrate real, measurable improvements in the lives of diverse older adults and their family caregivers by strengthening the capacity of the systems and organizations that serve them.

Administratively, the opportunity listed an award ceiling of $210,032, anticipated approximately six awards, and required electronic submission by 11:59 p.m. ET on the closing date (originally June 26, 2023).
