Description

The Elder Justice Innovation Grants program is intended to support foundational work to create credible innovations, with benchmarks for adult maltreatment prevention, and for program development and evaluation. The Elder Justice Innovation Grants program supports the development and advancement of knowledge and approaches in new and emerging issues related to elder justice. Funded projects contribute to the improvement of the field of adult maltreatment prevention and intervention at large by undertaking initiatives such as developing programs, interventions, and materials, or by establishing and/or contributing to the evidence base of knowledge. Through this program announcement, ACL plans to award up to twenty (20) cooperative agreements, ranging from $150,000 - $1,000,000 per year for a 36-month project period, to assess and implement improvements in the handling of the adult guardianship and conservatorship process by state courts. This includes enhancing the fairness, effectiveness, timeliness, safety, and integrity of adult guardianship/conservatorship proceedings; addressing access to guardianship revocation and alternative pathways and proceedings that promote less restrictive means of supported decision making; and developing innovations to improve the experiences of individuals at risk of guardianship/conservatorship. Projects will be three (3) years in length, with three (3), 12-month budget periods. ACL anticipates ability to make up to a total of 20 awards under this opportunity.
