    Summary

    The purpose of this grant program is to provide disaster reimbursement and assistance funds to those State Units on Aging (SUAs) and federally recognized Tribal Organizations who are currently receiving a grant under Title VI of the Older Americans Act (OAA), as amended. These funds only become available when the President declares a National Disaster and may only be used in those areas designated in the Disaster Declaration issued by the President of the United States.

    Applicants should talk with the State and local Emergency Managers to determine what funds may be available through other resources before applying for OAA funding.
