Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2024 ACL AOD IL 0068
The Administration for Community Living (ACL) is offering a discretionary cooperative agreement to establish one new Center for Independent Living (CIL) in American Samoa. The purpose of the award is to build or strengthen local independent living capacity by providing, expanding, and improving independent living services for people with disabilities, while also supporting the broader network of CILs. The program is designed to help individuals with disabilities live with greater independence in the community, reduce unnecessary institutionalization, and strengthen consumer-directed supports.
The opportunity will fund a single award with an anticipated total of $159,762 (which also functions as the award ceiling). The funding is being competed under Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2024 ACL AOD IL 0068 and is listed under Assistance Listing (CFDA) 93.432, within the activity area of Income Security and Social Services. Applications were originally due July 15, 2024, and ACL expects to make one award.
A funded center must, at minimum, deliver the required core independent living services. These include information and referral services to connect people to resources and benefits; independent living skills training to build practical skills needed for daily life and community participation; peer counseling that leverages support from others with lived experience; and both individual and systems advocacy to help people resolve personal barriers while also improving policies and practices that affect the disability community. In addition, the center must provide services that support transitions, including helping people move from nursing homes and other institutions back into the community, assisting individuals who are at risk of entering institutions to remain in community settings, and helping youth with disabilities transition into postsecondary life (such as higher education, employment, and independent community living).
Eligibility is focused on domestic, private nonprofit organizations that meet the program requirements, including nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (and not institutions of higher education, per the eligibility listing provided). ACL specifically notes that a range of community-based nonprofits may apply, including Indian tribal organizations (American Indian/Alaska Native/Native American), faith-based organizations, LGBT-serving organizations, and other community-based entities, so long as they meet the eligibility criteria. Foreign entities are explicitly not eligible to apply for or receive an award under this announcement.
The notice also highlights a contingency under Section 724 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973: if no private nonprofit organization submits an acceptable application, a State agency may operate the CIL, as long as it submits an acceptable application to ACL. If a State agency receives the award under that circumstance, it may continue receiving funding each year only as long as no nonprofit private agencies later submit acceptable applications in response to a posted CIL competition. This structure reinforces the program preference for consumer-controlled, community-based nonprofit centers, while ensuring services can still be established if nonprofit applications are not successful.Apply for HHS 2024 ACL AOD IL 0068
