On June 15th, the Administration for Community Living announced the release of proposed updates to the OAA regulations. The proposed rule addresses issues that have emerged since the last update (which was in 1988) and clarifies a number of requirements for programs authorized under Titles III (grants to state and community programs on aging), VI (grants to Indian tribes and Native Hawaiian grantees for supportive, nutrition, and caregiver services), and VII (allotments for vulnerable elder rights protection activities). It aims to better support the national network that delivers OAA services and improve program implementation, with a goal of better serving older adults. LeadingAge will review the regulations to see if comments are in order.
