Welcome to the Technical Assistance Exchange!


About the Aging and Disability Resource Center Grant and the Nursing Home Modernization Grant Programs
Funded by the US Administration on Aging, the Aging and Disability Resource Center and Nursing Home Diversion Modernization initiatives support the goals that state agencies, community organizations and advocates are working toward in many states - to make the long term service system more person-centered and consumer-directed, make it easier for people with disabilities of all ages to access information about home and community-based alternatives to institutional services, and support people of all income levels to live independently in their communities.

Inspired by demonstrated state success and codified in the Older American’s Act’s 2006 reauthorization, these programs support states in identifying innovative, cost-effective strategies for modifying state long term care systems, designing flexible programs that respond to the needs and preferences of individuals and families, and targeting services to individuals at risk for institutional placement so they can remain at home or in community settings.
