Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2017 ACL CIP LRLI 0230
The FY2017 Lifespan Respite Care Program: Advancing State Lifespan Respite Systems is a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration for Community Living (ACL). It is issued as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the federal agency expects to be actively involved with grantees during the project period through ongoing collaboration, guidance, and monitoring rather than simply providing funds with minimal interaction. The program is listed under CFDA 93.072 and falls within the health funding activity category.
At its core, this opportunity is tied to the Lifespan Respite Care Act, which is aimed at strengthening respite care for family caregivers across the full lifespan. The Act frames its purpose in three connected goals: expanding and enhancing respite care services available to family caregivers; improving statewide dissemination, coordination, and organization of respite resources so families can more easily find and use them; and providing, supplementing, or improving access to and quality of respite care in ways that reduce caregiver strain. In practical terms, the program is focused on helping family caregivers who support people of any age who have disabilities, including caregivers who may be juggling complex medical, behavioral, or daily living support needs over long periods of time.
ACL notes that it has been funding states under this program since 2009, and that many of those states have made meaningful progress in building or strengthening their capacity to deliver coordinated, high-quality respite services. The FY2017 funding round builds on that history but pushes states to take a harder look at how complete and functional their current approach really is. Rather than only adding isolated respite services, applicants are expected to examine the extent to which their state has an actual "Lifespan Respite System" and then propose strategies to move closer to a more fully realized, coordinated statewide system. In other words, the emphasis is on system development and integration: how respite is organized, accessed, coordinated, and sustained across programs and populations, not just how many respite hours are delivered.
Eligible applicants are primarily state governments, with additional eligibility details referenced in the opportunity's "Additional Information on Eligibility" section. The notice anticipates making about 15 awards, with an award ceiling of $265,000. The opportunity was created on May 18, 2017, with an original closing date of July 18, 2017, and electronically submitted applications were required to be submitted by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Overall, the grant is designed to help states assess gaps in their current respite landscape, improve coordination and dissemination of services, and advance toward a comprehensive statewide respite system that better supports family caregivers and reduces caregiver burden.Apply for HHS 2017 ACL CIP LRLI 0230
