The program supports grants to develop and implement, in coordination with programs under Title VII, Section 753 (Education and Training Related to Geriatrics), programs and initiatives to train and educate individuals in providing care for the elderly.This funding opportunity is for entities eligible for the EETHP-CGEP grant program only.
