Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2024 ACL AOA ABRC 0030
The National Center on Elder Abuse Resource Center grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2024 ACL AOA ABRC 0030) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Community Living (ACL). Its overall aim is to strengthen how states and local communities prevent, recognize, and respond to elder maltreatment, including abuse, neglect, and financial exploitation. The selected grantee is expected to operate as a national-level hub of expertise, providing practical, up-to-date information and support that can be used by professionals and systems working with older adults.
A central expectation of this award is that the grantee will function as the national leader and authoritative resource on elder abuse, neglect, and exploitation. In practice, this means actively collecting and disseminating current resources, research-informed information, and field-relevant tools so that state and local entities do not have to reinvent materials or operate with outdated guidance. The cooperative agreement structure also signals an active partnership with the federal government rather than a purely hands-off grant, meaning the grantee will likely collaborate closely with ACL on priorities, deliverables, and coordination with other national efforts.
The work described emphasizes coordination and field-building, not just producing documents. The grantee will partner with federal and non-federal stakeholders to plan and promote activities tied to World Day on Elder Abuse, helping drive national visibility and unified messaging. In addition, the center is expected to identify, develop, and curate promising practices and policy approaches across the elder justice landscape, essentially serving as a clearinghouse that highlights what appears to work and helps jurisdictions learn from one another.
Another major component is workforce and system support through training and technical assistance. The grantee will develop, compile, publish, and disseminate training materials designed for professionals who may encounter elder maltreatment, and will provide technical assistance to grantees as well as to state, federal, and non-federal entities. This suggests a strong implementation focus: helping agencies and partners apply best practices, improve protocols, and strengthen prevention and response capacity in real-world settings.
Key administrative details include a maximum award amount (ceiling) of $1,000,000, with ACL expecting to make one award. The program is associated with Assistance Listing/CFDA number 93.048 and falls under the funding activity category of Income Security and Social Services. Eligible applicants are listed as unrestricted, but foreign entities are explicitly not eligible to apply for or receive an award under this announcement. The original application closing date was June 3, 2024, and the opportunity record was created on April 2, 2024.Apply for HHS 2024 ACL AOA ABRC 0030
