Grant Summary and Timeline: The Central Plains Area Agency on Aging (CPAAA) has been receiving Older Americans Act Federal funding since 1980. The Kansas Department on Aging and Disability Services (KDADS) requires all 11 Area Agencies on Aging (AAA) in Kansas to submit an Area Plan that outlines how federal funds for the planning and service area will be expended to meet the needs specific to the region. The CPAAA Council approved the FY 2019 Area Plan on May 16, 2018. A public hearing was also held on that date. The Harvey County Board of County Commissioners and the Butler County Board of County Commissioners have reviewed the plan and authorized the Sedgwick County Chairman to sign the Area Plan. The Area Plan will fund the following programs in FY 2019:
OAA III Administration: $95,980
OAA III B Support and Community Services: $473,736
OAA III C-1 Nutrition - Congregate: Federal - $844,944; State - $24,950; NSIP - $58,235
OAA III C-2 Nutrition - Home Delivered: Federal - $432,435; State - $697,596; NSIP - $161,103
OAA III D Health Promotion and Disease Prevention: $35,938
OAA III E Family Caregiver Support Services: $254,273
(This is an estimated budget. The final 2019 budget numbers have not been received from the Kansas Department on Aging and Disability Services as the Administration on Aging has not finalized the 2019 budget)

The current federal law may be found at 42 U.S.C. 3001, et. seq. (Public Law 109-365). There are numerous federal and state law requirements imposed upon Area Agencies on Aging, including CPAAA and filing the annual Area Plan. The primary applicable state law is the Kansas Senior Care Act at K.S.A. 75-5926 et seq. This grant application requires approval of the Board of County Commissioners. Approval is by simple majority vote.
