[Funding Opportunity]
Lifespan Respite Care Program Funding Opportunities

ACL has opened three new funding opportunities under its Lifespan Respite Care Program<https://lnks.gd/l/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJidWxsZXRpbl9saW5rX2lkIjoxMDEsInVyaSI6ImJwMjpjbGljayIsImJ1bGxldGluX2lkIjoiMjAyMDAzMzEuMTk1MzQ0MjEiLCJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2FjbC5nb3YvcHJvZ3JhbXMvc3VwcG9ydC1jYXJlZ2l2ZXJzL2xpZmVzcGFuLXJlc3BpdGUtY2FyZS1wcm9ncmFtIn0.yX-DUCgmY8YV4tacq2PDrThRxMkwNmNKGcLi5mmboq0/br/76831111013-l>. Lifespan Respite Care programs are coordinated systems of accessible, community-based respite care services for family caregivers of children and adults of all ages with special needs. Such programs reduce duplication of effort and assist in the development of respite care infrastructures at the state and local levels.

The primary objectives of this funding opportunity are to: (1) further identify, develop, and disseminate training and Technical Assistance resources to ACL's Lifespan Respite Care Program grantees (past, present and future) that address the role of respite as a means to supporting families in their own development of natural supports; (2) strengthen the national capacities at the federal, state and local levels to provide respite services as an essential family support across the age and disability spectrum; and (3) support activities and innovations to develop an evidence base for respite care and related services.
