Basis for Award

    Meals on Wheels America (MOWA) is currently funded to carry out the 
objectives of this project through its current project entitled, 
National Resource Center on Nutrition and Aging for the period of 
September 1, 2017 through August 31, 2020. Since the project's 
implementation, the grantee has made satisfactory progress toward its 
approved work plan. The supplement will enable the grantee to carry 
their work even further, enhancing the support they provide to the 
Aging Network Nutrition Program Providers. The additional funding will 
not be used to begin new projects or activities, but rather to continue 
to enhance efforts specific to tribal populations and congregate meal 
settings.
    MOWA is uniquely positioned to complete the work called for under 
this project. They have an already established infrastructure and are a 
known and trusted organization in the Aging Network. They have an 
established presence within much of the Aging Network. Under this 
current award period, they are providing educational opportunities for 
the Aging Network Nutrition Program Providers, including webinars and 
live trainings. They have a comprehensive, interactive web-based 
repository (www.nutritionandaging.org) with tools and resources, 
including--but not limited to--issues briefs, policy and practice 
models, and toolkits. They have also presented to the Aging Network 
locally and on a national level. They have reached thousands of 
providers using their: (1) Comprehensive database of SUAs, AAAs, and 
other Nutrition Program Providers; and (2) Leadership Academy, which 
provides expert consultation around nutrition program delivery and the 
use of technology to enhance services. In addition, they have developed 
partnerships with organizations, universities, and other entities to 
provide education and support for the Aging Network.
    Establishing an entirely new grant project at this time would be 
potentially disruptive to the current work already well under way. More 
importantly, it could cause confusion among the Aging Network Nutrition 
Program Providers, which could have a negative effect on training and 
support opportunities. If this supplement were not provided, the 
project would be unable to address the significant unmet educational 
needs of the Aging Network Nutrition Program Providers.
