Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2023 ACL AOD IL 0012
The Centers for Independent Living Competition - Guam (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2023 ACL AOD IL 0012) is a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Community Living (ACL), under CFDA 93.432 (Income Security and Social Services). The purpose of this opportunity is to fund the establishment of one new Center for Independent Living (CIL) in Guam. ACL is aiming to strengthen independent living infrastructure on the island by creating a center that can provide direct services, expand the availability and quality of independent living supports, and contribute to the broader national network of CILs.
Funding is intended for a single award, with one expected grantee and an award ceiling of $112,444, which is also the estimated total amount ACL plans to award for this effort. The grant’s focus is on building or establishing a functioning CIL that can serve people with disabilities in Guam by promoting community living, self-determination, and equal access to services and opportunities. While the notice frames this as an establishment opportunity, the underlying goal is practical: increase local capacity so people with disabilities can live and participate in the community rather than being pushed toward institutional care or unnecessary dependence.
At a minimum, the center created through this grant must deliver the core independent living services required under the CIL model. These required core services include information and referral (helping individuals find, understand, and connect to relevant community resources and benefits), independent living skills training (teaching practical skills that support living in the community, such as budgeting, navigating services, self-advocacy, and daily living supports), peer counseling (support provided by people with lived disability experience to others, emphasizing mutual support and problem-solving), and both individual and systems advocacy (helping individuals resolve barriers they personally face while also working on broader policy or community-level changes that remove structural obstacles). In addition to these core elements, the center must provide services that support transitions: helping people move from nursing homes and other institutions back into the community, assisting people who are at risk of institutionalization to remain in community settings, and facilitating the transition of youth with disabilities into postsecondary life (such as higher education, employment, independent living, and adult services).
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, specifically excluding institutions of higher education from eligibility under this competition. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the opportunity was posted on February 23, 2023, with an original application deadline of April 24, 2023. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date, emphasizing that applicants needed to plan around time zone differences and submission system cutoffs.
Overall, this opportunity is designed to establish one CIL in Guam that can deliver the standard set of independent living services while also addressing critical transition needs, particularly moving people out of institutions, preventing unnecessary institutionalization, and supporting youth as they enter adulthood. The single-award structure and relatively modest funding level signal a targeted effort to seed or stand up a local center that can begin providing essential services and connect Guam more strongly to the national CIL network.Apply for HHS 2023 ACL AOD IL 0012
