This week, n4a Senior Programs Associate Eileen Miller presented at the CDSME & Falls Prevention Resource Centers Annual Meeting, discussing how local partnerships with transportation providers can deliver funding opportunities for AAAs.
Qualified AAAs are eligible to receive FTA Section 5310 funds if they become part of the locally coordinated transportation plan under the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act (FAST). AAAs can also use OAA Title III B funds to meet the match requirements for 5310.
