Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2021 ACL AOA ADPI 0083
The Alzheimer’s Disease Programs Initiative (ADPI) - Grants to States and Communities is a discretionary federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), specifically the Administration for Community Living (ACL). It is offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning awardees should expect an active partnership with the federal agency during the project period rather than a hands-off grant. The overall purpose is to build and expand dementia-capable home and community-based services (HCBS) systems so that people living with dementia can remain as independent and safe as possible while staying in their homes and communities. A central emphasis is on quality, person-centered services that are designed around real-life needs, caregiving realities, and community supports rather than one-size-fits-all programming.
This opportunity is structured around two distinct application tracks. Option A is intended for States, and Option B is intended for Communities. Applicants must choose one path, because the same entity is not allowed to apply under both options. Even though the tracks differ in who leads the work (state-level systems versus community-level systems), both are aimed at creating stronger, more coordinated dementia-capable service systems. In practice, that typically means improving how local and state aging, disability, health, and social service networks identify dementia-related needs, connect families to supports, and deliver services in ways that acknowledge cognitive impairment, caregiver stress, and safety risks while still protecting dignity and autonomy.
The funding is cataloged under CFDA (now commonly referenced as Assistance Listing) 93.470 and falls under the broad activity area of income security and social services. The listing of eligible applicants is intentionally wide, reflecting that dementia-capable systems often require cross-sector partnerships. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; public and private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; nonprofit organizations (including both 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3) entities, excluding higher education institutions where specified); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. This breadth signals that ACL is open to a variety of administrative “homes” for the project as long as the applicant can credibly lead system development or expansion and coordinate across providers and stakeholders.
From a funding standpoint, the award ceiling is $1,000,000 per award, and ACL anticipated making about 14 awards under this competition. The opportunity was posted on February 24, 2021, with an original application deadline of April 26, 2021. While the dates indicate this specific announcement is from 2021, the summary is still useful as a snapshot of ACL’s priorities for dementia-capable HCBS work and the kind of organizations and partnerships that tend to be competitive for ADPI-style funding.
In short, ADPI funding under this opportunity is designed to strengthen the infrastructure of dementia-capable community support, not just fund isolated services. The expected outcome is a more coordinated HCBS system that can reliably deliver person-centered assistance, better support caregivers, and help people living with dementia stay safe and engaged in their communities for as long as possible.Apply for HHS 2021 ACL AOA ADPI 0083
