Creates a new competitive grant program to support multigenerational programs inside long‑term care facilities. Grants can fund on‑site child care, activities that connect residents and children, and construction or expansion of space to host these programs. Grantees must run evaluations and report results. Applicants must certify infection‑control measures. Grants last at least 36 months, and the administering agency must provide an overall report to Congress on outcomes.
Assistant Secretary shall award grants, on a competitive basis, to eligible entities to carry out the program created by this section (Section 423 added to Part A of title IV of the Older Americans Act of 1965).
Grants may be used to operate a qualified child care facility within the long-term care facility or to contract with a qualified child care facility.
Grants may be used to coordinate multigenerational activities between the integrated qualified child care facility and the long-term care facility.
Grants may be used to build a new, or expand an existing, long-term care facility operated by the eligible entity for the purposes of operating child care or coordinating multigenerational activities.
An entity seeking a grant must submit an application to the Assistant Secretary at such time, in such manner, and with such information as the Assistant Secretary may reasonably require, and in accordance with subsection (g).
