Community Care Corps has announced an RFP for innovative local models where volunteers provide nonmedical assistance to older adults, adults with disabilities, or family caregivers to help them maintain their independence.
Informational Webinar: June 3, 2022, 2:00 PM ET
Community Care Corps will award 18-month competitive grants between $30,000 and $200,000 for new applicants. Current Community Care Corps grantees may apply for another year of funding up to $100,000 or 100% of the previous award amount, whichever is less.
The purpose of the project is to establish, enhance, or grow volunteer programs for family caregivers, older adults, and adults with disabilities. A wide range of nonprofit entities, such as faith- and community-based organizations, institutions of higher education, and service organizations, as well as state, county, and local governments are encouraged to apply. Community Care Corps seeks to fund local models that represent a diverse cross-section of the nation reflective of demographics and geography – urban, rural, frontier, and tribal communities; underserved and limited English-speaking populations; communities with limited support programs; and more.
Funded by ACL, Community Care Corps is a national program that fosters innovative models with local volunteers to assist family caregivers, older adults, and people with disabilities with nonmedical care in their own homes in order to help them maintain independence.
