Livable Communities

The Department of Health Services (DHS) is pleased to announce this grant opportunity for agencies to address livable communities for older adults and people with disabilities. AARP defines Livable Communities as “one that is safe and secure, has affordable and appropriate housing and transportation options, and has supportive community features and services. Once in place, those resources enhance personal independence; allow residents to age in place; and foster residents’ engagement in the community’s civic, economic, and social life. And it equitably serves residents of all ages, ability levels, incomes, races, ethnicities, and other backgrounds.” In its essence, livable communities are the built environment that support social connection. This competitive grant opportunity is intended to provide local communities with the resources to form or enhance a local coalition and develop innovative and relevant solutions that address the unique needs of local populations and communities.
