Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2025 ACL AOD IL 0020
The Centers for Independent Living Competition - American Samoa (Funding Opportunity Number: HHS 2025 ACL AOD IL 0020) is a discretionary federal 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 establish one new Center for Independent Living (CIL) in American Samoa. Through this award, ACL is aiming to strengthen local capacity to deliver independent living services, expand the availability of supports for people with disabilities, and connect American Samoa more fully to the broader national network of CILs.
The program is designed to fund a center that provides the core independent living services required of CILs. At a minimum, the funded center must deliver information and referral services so individuals can access community resources and navigate available supports. It must also provide independent living skills training, which typically focuses on practical skills that help people with disabilities live more independently in the community. Peer counseling is another required core service, emphasizing support and mentorship from people with lived experience of disability. The center must also offer both individual and systems advocacy, meaning it should help individuals address barriers they face personally (such as accessing services or accommodations) while also working to improve policies, practices, and community systems that affect people with disabilities more broadly.
In addition to these core services, the opportunity specifically emphasizes services that support people transitioning out of institutional settings and into community living. This includes helping individuals move from nursing homes and other institutions back into the community, assisting people who are at risk of entering institutions so they can remain in community-based settings, and facilitating the transition of youth with disabilities into postsecondary life. In practice, that last area often includes support with planning for adulthood, education or training pathways, employment readiness, and building the independent living skills and community connections needed after high school.
Funding is expected to support one award, with an award ceiling and estimated total funding amount of $159,762 to establish the CIL in American Samoa. The project period is 24 months, structured as two 12-month budget periods, which generally means the recipient will plan and report on activities annually within the broader two-year project timeline. The application deadline listed is June 16, 2025, and the opportunity was created on January 15, 2025.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit organizations that have 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education. Foreign entities are explicitly not eligible to apply for or receive funding under this announcement. Faith-based and community organizations are allowed to compete as long as they meet the stated eligibility requirements, which signals that ACL is open to a wide range of community-rooted nonprofit applicants, provided they have the required nonprofit status and can carry out the CIL model and required services.Apply for HHS 2025 ACL AOD IL 0020
