ACTION: Announcing the Intent To

for Holocaust Survivors Program
AGENCY:
The Administration for Community
Living (ACL) announces the intent to
award a single-source supplement to the
current cooperative agreement held by
the Jewish Federations of North
America for the project Advancing
Person-Centered, Trauma-Informed
Supportive Services for Holocaust
Survivors. The purpose of this project is
to, (1) advance the development and

Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 24 / Tuesday, February 5, 2019 / Notices
expansion of person-centered, traumainformed (PCTI) supportive services for
Holocaust survivors living in the U.S.
and, (2) improve the nation’s overall
capacity to deliver PCTI health and
human services for this population and
to any older adult with a history of
trauma. The administrative supplement
for FY 2019 will be in the amount of
$2,467,000, bringing the total award for
FY 2019 to $4,935,000.
The additional funding will not be
used to begin new projects, but to serve
more Holocaust survivors with vital
supports such as legal assistance, case
management, transportation, medication
management, social engagement
activities designed to reduce isolation,
loneliness and depression, and to
provide supports for family caregivers,
all of which will employ PCTI
approaches. The additional funds will
also be used to further expand existing
technical assistance activities, under the
second objective, in a variety of ways,
including replicating and translating
proven models of PCTI services and
supports developed under this grant.
Additional funds will also further the
development of new training materials,
curricula and partnerships to aid in the
replication of PCTI practices; enhance
and expand the evaluation activities
currently under way; and enhance
existing website capacities for improved
information dissemination.
Program Name: Advancing PersonCentered, Trauma-Informed (PCTI)
Supportive Services for Holocaust
Survivors.
Recipient: The Jewish Federations of
North America.
Period of Performance: The
supplement award will be issued for the
fifth (and final) year of the five-year
project period of September 30, 2015
through September 29, 2020.
Total Award Amount: $4,935,000 in
FY 2018.
Award Type: Cooperative Agreement
Supplement.
Statutory Authority: The Older
Americans Act (OAA) of 1965, as
amended, Public Law 109–365—Title 4,
Section 411.
Basis for Award: The Jewish
Federations of North America (JFNA) is
currently funded to carry out the
objectives of this project, entitled
Advancing PCTI Supportive Services for
Holocaust Survivors for the period of
September 30, 2015 through September
29, 2020. Since project implementation
began in late 2015, the grantee has
accomplished a great deal. The
supplement will enable the grantee to
carry their work even further, serving
more Holocaust survivors and providing
even more comprehensive training and

technical assistance in the development
of PCTI supportive services. The
additional funding will not be used to
begin new projects or activities.
The JFNA is uniquely positioned to
complete the work called for under this
project. JFNA and its project partners,
including the Network of Jewish Human
Services Agencies (NJHSA), and the
Conference on Material Claims Against
Germany (Claims Conference), have the
cultural competence and long history of
serving and advocating for Holocaust
survivors. Additionally, JFNA is already
working in collaboration with numerous
partners representing a broad cross
section of the Jewish human services
network (e.g., Selfhelp Community
Services, Bet Tzedek, The Blue Card,
and the Orthodox Union of America)
and the ‘‘mainstream aging services
network,’’ (e.g., Meals on Wheels of
America (MoWA), the National
Association of Area Agencies on Aging
(n4a), the National Council on Aging
(NCOA), Leading Age and other
members of the Leadership Council of
Aging Organizations [LCAO]).
Establishing an entirely new grant
project at this time would be potentially
disruptive to the current work already
well under way. More importantly, the
Holocaust survivors currently being
served by this project could be
negatively impacted by a service
disruption, thus posing the risk of retraumatization and further negative
impacts on health and wellbeing. If this
supplement is not provided, the project
would be less able to address the
significant unmet health and social
support needs of additional Holocaust
survivors. Similarly, the project would
be unable to expand its current
technical assistance and training efforts
in PCTI concepts and approaches, let
alone reach beyond traditional
providers of services to this population
to train more ‘‘mainstream’’ providers of
aging services.
