FOA-Innovations
in Nutrition Programs and Services – Research; March 29,
2021
Agency
Administration
for Community Living
Description
The
purpose of this funding opportunity is to support research and documentation of
innovative and promising practices, including those that have emerged during
the COVID-19 pandemic, that have the potential that enhance the quality,
effectiveness and proven outcomes of nutrition services programs within the
aging services network. The Older Americans Act (OAA) provides funding to
States and Tribal Organizations to support a broad array of services that
enable older adults to remain in their homes and communities and assist family
and informal caregivers to care for their loved ones for as long as
possible.
Research
projects proposed under this grant program must have the potential for broad
implementation throughout the aging services network and have demonstrated
value, i.e., improvements in participant well-being, cost savings, etc.
Research innovations must target services to underserved older adults with
greatest social and economic need, and individuals at risk for institutional
placement, to permit such individuals to remain in home and community-based
settings thereby avoiding the need for more costly medical
interventions.
