FY27 APS Training/Supervision Assistance Grant

FY27 APS Training/Supervision Assistance Grant

This grant is issued to support activities authorized under the Elder Justice Act Section 2042(b) of Title XX of the Social Security Act [Public Law 74-271] [As Amended Through P.L. 115-123, Enacted February 9, 2018].

Funding under the Department on Aging, Advocacy and Prevention Services for Adult Protective Services will include reimbursement for Supervision and Training.

As staffing shortages and worker retention issues continue to strain the APS Network, it is imperative that IDoA look for innovative ways to sustain programs. IDoA is proposing to pay for the substantiation decision supervision where a case worker presents the facts and evidence obtained during the investigation at a rate of $100.00 per occurrence.

Likewise, until the time that an APS provider agency can bill for services, they receive no revenue for new hires. IDoA is proposing an hourly 'required training reimbursement'. The hourly payment of $55.00 per hour would strengthen training, a factor in staff retention, by incentivizing more rapid hiring of caseworkers allowing time for additional training as well as encouraging training for existing staff. Trainings included in the hourly rate are: Phase I, Phase II, Supervisor, Simulation, annual Dementia, Annual Trauma Informed Care, SAGE, In-Service, and Recertification.

For training, providers may bill the hourly rate of $55.00 and for supervision, providers may bill the rate of $100.00 per occurrence up to the amounts listed below for the period of July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027:
