OAA Title VI Parts A/B — Tribal Nutrition and Supportive Services¶
Older Americans Act Title VI Parts A and B provide formula grants to approximately 280 tribal organizations serving American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian elders. Part A funds supportive services (homemaker, transportation, case management, adult day) and Part B funds nutrition services (home-delivered and congregate meals) for Native elders age 60 and older. These grants carry much of the caregiving-relief load for Native families — distinct from Title VI Part C which funds caregiver support specifically.
OAA Title VI Parts A/B provide formula grants to eligible Tribal organizations for nutrition and supportive services for Native American, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian elders. ACL lists congregate and home-delivered meals, information and referral, transportation, personal care, chores, health promotion and disease prevention, and other supportive services. Formula grants are allocated based on the population age 60 and over in the service area; federally recognized Tribal organizations must represent at least 50 Native elders age 60 and over to be eligible for funding, and Tribes may decide the age at which a member is considered an elder for services. Use OlderIndians.ACL.gov to find Title VI program resources and directors; current grantee counts, funding amounts, and service menus should live in the resources layer.
