ACL Funding Opportunity Announcement

The Administration for Community Living (ACL) funds discretionary grants under the Developmental Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights Act of 2000 (DD Act), which is administered by the Administration on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (AIDD) as well as the Older Americans Act, which is administered by the Administration on Aging (AoA). In addition, ACL is also responsible for administering other authorizing statutes relevant to older Americans and individuals with disabilities. Based on guidance from the Department of Health and Human Services, and using the previously approved AoA Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) template, ACL has developed a template for FOAs to solicit applications for funding ACL discretionary programs. ACL Program Officers use the Funding Opportunity Announcement template, which also contains Grant Application Instructions and other informational resources and templates as a guide for the development of solicitations for new discretionary funding opportunities. Prospective applicants prepare their applications based on this announcement.

The latest form for ACL Funding Opportunity Announcement expires 2021-01-31 and is listed under ICR 201704-0985-002.
