Age-Friendly Minnesota, Minnesota, USA (2023)
Project Overview
The Age-Friendly Minnesota (AFMN) Council, in collaboration with the MN Department of Human Services, is offering Technical Assistance Provider (TAP) Grants and Community Grants to help communities and organizations to work on age-friendly projects and become better places for all Minnesotans to grow older. The Council is committed to making Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) the foundation of AFMN, including this grants program. TAP Grants are designed to help AFMN Community Grant applicants carry out their grant-funded projects. TAP Grantees advise and support both AFMN Community applicants/grantees as well as other communities working on Age-Friendly initiatives for the duration of the Community Grant period.
