The RRF Foundation for Aging is pleased to announce the Professional Education & Training Grants Program.
RRF funds professional education and training projects that will be broadly disseminated to achieve a national impact. RRF recognizes the importance of a well-trained workforce to serve older persons. Of particular interest are programs that:
- Increase the knowledge and skills of professionals and paraprofessionals who serve older people.
- Expand the capacity and number of professionals and paraprofessionals prepared to meet the growing needs of an aging population.
Eligibility Criteria
Professional Education and Training Grants are provided to nonprofit organizations that are:
- Proposing a project that has a significant focus on those working with persons, ages 65 and older.
- Proposing a project that will have national reach across the U.S. or regional reach within the states of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri, Wisconsin, or Florida.
Reporting Requirements
- The due dates for all grant reports are listed on page four of the RRF Grant Award Letters sent to applicants who are awarded grants.
- The need for both interim reports and a final report is at the discretion of the RRF Program Officer assigned to a grant. Therefore, interim reports may be required for some grants, but not for others.
- Grantees will submit their reports electronically via the applicable report form(s) uploaded into the grantees’ RRF Online Applications and Requirements accounts. Grantees will receive an email notifying them when the applicable report form(s) have been uploaded into their account. In addition, they will receive instructions about how to access the forms via an RRF Online Applications and Requirements Account.
