NANASP, ADvancing States, USAging, NCOA, and Meals on Wheels America write to Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

We, the undersigned organizations, collectively represent the national Aging Network including 56 state and territorial agencies on aging, 614 Area Agencies on Aging, thousands of local nutrition providers, like Meals on Wheels, senior centers, and other community-based service organizations. We are writing to respectfully request a meeting to discuss the future of aging services programs within the Department of Health and Human Services, particularly as it relates to continued federal leadership and continuity of services during the reorganization. Specifically, we would like to explore the impact the reorganization plan may have on the older adults and family caregivers we serve in states and communities nationwide.

During the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond, NANASP has co-led successful advocacy efforts
to gain more funding for important aging programs, including:

Emergency relief funding of over $1.6 billion for OAA Title IIIC nutrition programs, including congregate and home-delivered meals, and increases of $60 million in regular funding for these programs over the last four fiscal years
Relief funding of $660 million for OAA Title IIIB supportive services
Relief funding of over $60 million for OAA Title VI Native American nutrition and supportive services

In the past year, NANASP has also led a successful advocacy campaign to make new pneumococcal vaccines available to older adults, participated in the White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition and Health, and given grant funding to our members for innovative projects, inflation protection, diversity efforts, and public-private partnerships.
