Applicants for Option B are public and/or private community-based organizations that operate within an existing dementia capable HCBS system. Eligible applicants must be able to articulate opportunities for new partnerships and opportunities to expand and implement proposed programs (services and supports) in their existing system.

Option B requires applicants to address all three of the following gap areas:

Provision of effective supportive services to persons living alone with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD)
Improvement of the quality and effectiveness of programs and services dedicated to individuals aging with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) with ADRD or those at high risk of developing ADRD
