How the collaborative works
The collaborative is delivered in two phases. In phase one (January 2024 to April 2024), teams received support to create implementation and evaluation plans. This helped them develop sustainable aging-in-place programs that built on the strengths of individual communities and responded to the local needs of older adults and their care partners.
Qualifying teams from phase one who demonstrated readiness to implement their programs and successfully completed their implementation and evaluation plans will be supported to implement, spread, or expand a promising practice based on this progress in phase two of the collaborative (June 2024 to September 2025).
