The information submitted by Older
Americans Act (OAA) Title III and VII grantees is the
Administration for Community Livings' (ACL) principle source for
data and information on programs and services funded under the OAA.
The State Performance Report serves as the Program Performance
Report for the state grantees to meet their annual grantee
reporting requirements and includes the data required by the OAA to
be reported in the AoA Annual Report to Congress. The data
collection is summary data of services for seniors provided or
managed by State Units on Aging (SUA) and Area Agencies on Aging
(AAA). Data is submitted annually by the 50 states, five
Territories (American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, Commonwealth of the
Northern Mariana Islands, and U.S. Virgin Islands), and Washington,
D.C. It includes information on the number of people served and
their characteristics, the number of units of specific services,
expenditures, total expenditures, number of state and local staff.
Data from the SPR are a significant source for performance measures
in the Congressional budget justification; the HHS Annual
Performance Plan and Report as well as the Annual Report to
Congress referred to above. ACL also uses the data to respond to
inquiries from stakeholders, the public, the press as well as
program and policy decision makers.
