Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2019 ACL AOA IELT 0349
The Tribal Long Term Services and Supports Resource Center opportunity (HHS 2019 ACL AOA IELT 0349) is a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Community Living (ACL), specifically through the Office of American Indian, Alaska Natives and Native Hawaiian Programs. The intent is to fund one new cooperative agreement to operate a national resource center focused on long term services and supports (LTSS) that are tribal-specific and culturally appropriate for American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian communities. In practical terms, the grant is designed to fill a gap many tribes face: limited access to tailored guidance, tools, and hands-on support for designing, improving, and sustaining LTSS systems that fit local culture, needs, and community structures.
The centerpiece of the award is the creation and operation of the National Resource Center on American Indian, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Long Term Services and Supports (NRCAIANNHLTSS). This center is expected to function as a national hub that gathers and translates best practices into usable guidance for tribes, with a strong emphasis on real-world applicability rather than general theory. The overall outcome is better access to relevant LTSS information and step-by-step guidance that tribes can use to develop or strengthen services that support older adults and people with disabilities, while keeping programs grounded in each tribe's unique cultural values and community priorities.
Two major deliverables drive the work under this cooperative agreement. First, the awardee must build a network of LTSS navigators. These navigators are meant to be trained, practical helpers who can work directly with tribes to support the process of LTSS development in response to tribe-specific needs. The navigator network is intended to make technical assistance more personal, consistent, and action-oriented, so tribes are not left to interpret policy, program design, and implementation challenges on their own. Second, the resource center must develop a practical, hands-on LTSS toolkit for tribes. This toolkit should map out the steps involved in developing and implementing LTSS programs, drawing from documented best practices and translating them into clear, usable materials that tribes can apply within their own communities.
While the resource center will primarily target services to the 270 tribes that receive Title VI grants, the announcement also makes clear that the center's materials should be publicly available, extending usefulness beyond Title VI recipients. That means tribes and organizations serving American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian populations more broadly should be able to access resources, guidance, and tools even if they are not part of the core target group. The broader goal is to improve quality of life for people served by ACL-supported programs by helping tribes build stronger, culturally aligned LTSS options that reflect local customs, caregiving traditions, and community-based approaches to support.
Eligibility includes federally recognized Native American tribal governments, Native American tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments), and other applicants as allowed under the announcement's additional eligibility details. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates that ACL expects substantial involvement in the project beyond a standard grant relationship, such as collaboration on deliverables, ongoing coordination, and shared expectations around implementation and reporting.
The opportunity was created on May 7, 2019, with an original closing date of July 5, 2019, and required electronic submission by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. ACL anticipated making a single award, with an award ceiling of $250,000. Applications were to be evaluated based on how well they respond to the FOA, especially the proposed approach, work plan, budget, and organizational capacity. Success under the award is measured largely by whether the grantee produces the two key outcomes: a functioning tribal LTSS navigator network and a high-quality LTSS toolkit that tribes can realistically use to guide program development and implementation.Apply for HHS 2019 ACL AOA IELT 0349
