ACL Announces 2019
CDSME and Falls Prevention Grantee Cohorts
ACL is pleased to announce the 2019 cohorts of Chronic Disease
Self-Management Education (CDSME) and Falls Prevention grantees. The
project period for these grants is May 1, 2019 – April 30, 2022.
The new CDSME grantees will reach an estimated 20,000
participants through evidence-based CDSME and self-management support
programs. The cooperative agreements are intended to increase the number of
CDSME program participants, while concurrently enhancing the sustainability
of these proven programs in the aging and disability network.
The new Falls Prevention grantees will reach approximately
30,000 older adults with evidence-based programs to reduce the risk of
falling and safeguard their independence. Grantees are tasked with
delivering these programs while also increasing their sustainability beyond
the life of the grant.
