I. Funding Opportunity Description
The Administration on Aging (AoA)
wishes to promote improvement of the
health status of racial and ethnic
minority older individuals by increasing
the efficiency of the NMAO Technical
Assistance Centers Program to
disseminate culturally competent health
promotion and disease prevention
information. To this end, the AoA plans
to award four (4) new cooperative
agreements for National Minority Aging
Organization Technical Assistance
Centers (NMAOs) for the development
of culturally competent and
linguistically appropriate front line
health promotion and disease
prevention strategies for racial and
ethnic minority older individuals.
Projects will develop practical,
nontraditional, community-based
interventions for reaching older
individuals who experience barriers to
accessing home and community-based

services due to language and low
literacy as well as other barriers directly
related to cultural diversity.
The NMAO Centers will incorporate
the latest technology to generate and
disseminate knowledge in appropriate
forms that can assist racial and ethnic
minority older individuals to practice
positive health behaviors that can
strengthen their capacity to maintain
active, independent life styles.
Technology may be used in any number
of formats or strategies from
development and dissemination of CDs
or DVDs or other portable electronics for
senior center or at home use by older
individuals, to PowerPoint
Presentations for use by, as well as to
train, senior center and nutrition site
staff, visiting service providers, family
members, etc. Technology can be
especially helpful for reaching limited
English speaking older individuals, both
directly and through mass media such
as public service announcements
(PSAs). For many who may be unable to
read, family members can be provided
a way to help seniors get clear
information which they received from
an electronic device. The NMAO
Centers will serve as national points of
contact for tools and information on
health promotion and disease
prevention. They will pilot culturally
competent activities and work products
tailored to meet the special needs of
racial and ethnic minority older
individuals, including limited English
speaking individuals.
The awards will be cooperative
agreements because the Administration
on Aging will be substantially involved
in the development and execution of the
activities of the technical assistance
centers. The Administration on Aging
will work closely with the grantees to
affect collaborative partnerships among
the other NMAO Centers. Consultation
will be provided on the development,
modification and execution of Center
work plans, the identification of
emerging issues, potential strategies and
their impact on racial and ethnic
minority older individuals nationwide.
A detailed description of the funding
opportunity may be found at: https://
www.aoa.gov/doingbus/fundopp.asp.
