priority needs, development of measurable objectives, and targeting of services to those in greatest economic or social need. The AAA in switched from the federal fiscal year to the state fiscal year in 2006 to comply with State agency financial management practices. The change will not impact the federal funding or reporting processes. It will however have a positive impact on state funding for the area agencies. AAA coordinate their activities with service agencies and organizations in order to avoid duplication of services. They also seek to involve the public and private sectors in the provision and expansion of services. The provision of services is accomplished by the awarding of grants through a Request for Proposal process to local public or private entities. State policy is in place to ensure all OAA pass-through funds are awarded in an open, competitive, and fair process. Direct services otherwise prohibited by the OAA may be permitted by Aging Services Division (ASD) if, in the judgment of the State agency, provision of the services is: (1) necessary to ensure an adequate supply of the services; (2) related to the administrative functions of the area agency on aging (AAA); or (3) more economical and of comparable quality. It is the responsibility of the AAA to monitor project compliance with regulations and assurances within state policy and the OAA as well as to evaluate the effectiveness of services rendered to older people. The variety of services to be provided (as appropriate) under Titles III and VII includes but is not limited to: access services (transportation, outreach, information and assistance, and case management); II. in-home services (homemaker, personal care, and chore service); III. legal assistance; IV. nutrition services (congregate meals, home-delivered meals, nutrition counseling and nutrition education); V.
