About grants for seniors

Grants for senior services fund aging-in-place programs, elder care, meal delivery, transportation, social isolation prevention, and organizations serving older adults. The Administration for Community Living (ACL) is the primary federal funder, while the Area Agencies on Aging network distributes services locally.
