The Dallas Area Agency on Aging (DAAA) contracts with other nonprofits, for
profit and governmental entities to provide care and services for seniors. The
contracting process begins in June of each year when requests for proposals are
made available on the agency website and upon request. Successful applicants
receive notification of award letters and a contract or service agreement in
September for services to be offered October 1 through September 30.
To be considered for funding, agencies/organizations must:
· Have a demonstrated ability to identify needs, provide services and be accessible to the general public;
· Be able to provide matching funds of at least ten percent (10%) or twenty-five percent (25%) of total project costs, depending on the service provided;
· Comply with applicable federal and state rules and regulations;
· Keep financial records in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; and
· Have an independent audit or financial accounting of past year’s activities.
