NC Department of Adult (DOA) is allocating $16,204,045 to the Centralina Area Agency on Aging (Region F) for FY2027, covering Home and Community Care Block Grant services, AAA planning and administration, support, Ombudsman, Family Caregiver Support, Legal Services, Title III‑D Health Promotion, Senior Center General Purpose, and Elder Abuse programs. This includes both pass‑through funding to counties and internal operations for the Centralina AAA from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The Executive Board is being asked to approve the FY27 contract allocation so funds can be used for allowable services such as nutrition, in‑home aide, transportation, adult day care, senior centers, caregiver support, and evidence‑based health programs.For providers in aging services, transportation, legal aid, health promotion curricula, case management software, and evaluation, this large, recurring grant allocation means counties and Centralina will be procuring or renewing service contracts and supports under HCCBG and Older Americans Act programs for the 2026‑27 service year.

Funds cover both county pass‑through contracts and Centralina AAA internal operations; specific vendors are selected through separate local processes.
