The New Jersey Department of Human Services (DHS), through its Division of Aging Services (DoAS), is offering Age-Friendly grants to local government and nonprofit entities. This program aligns with the state's mission to support the health and wellbeing of older New Jerseyans by fostering age-friendly initiatives and implementing recommendations from the New Jersey Age-Friendly Blueprint. The core mission is to strengthen communities by providing funding for organizations to assess, plan, and develop initiatives that support the health and wellbeing of older adults. The program seeks to advance efforts that lead to tangible and sustainable transformations in policies, systems, and environmental conditions across the state. The target beneficiaries of the Age-Friendly Grants Program are older adults throughout New Jersey. The program aims to improve their health, wellbeing, satisfaction, and quality of life. The impact goals are to create communities that are more livable for older adults by addressing eight age-friendly domains: outdoor spaces and buildings, transportation, housing, social participation, respect and social inclusion, civic participation and employment, communication and information, and community support and health services. This comprehensive approach ensures that various aspects of an older adult's life are considered and improved. The program prioritizes initiatives that promote public, private, and cross-sector partnerships, as well as public policies that address the aforementioned eight age-friendly domains. There are two grant options: Age-Friendly Communities and Age-Friendly Projects. Community Grants focus on broader planning and development, while Project Grants may also include direct services, equipment purchase, and capital improvements. Eligible costs for both grant types include salaries and fringe benefits, strategic planning, stakeholder engagement, training, in-state travel, business meeting costs, and translation services. Expected outcomes include enhanced capacity of New Jersey communities to support older adults, with tangible and sustainable transformations in local policies, systems, and environmental conditions. Measurable results will be seen through the implementation of local age-friendly initiatives aligned with the New Jersey Age-Friendly Blueprint. For Age-Friendly Community Grants, up to 57 grants of $70,000 each will be distributed regionally (Northern, Central, Southern New Jersey), totaling $3,990,000. For Age-Friendly Project Grants, up to 10 grants of up to $100,000 each will be awarded, totaling $1,000,000. The grant period runs from December 31, 2024, to June 30, 2026. The program's theory of change is that by empowering local entities with funding and guidance, and by fostering collaborative partnerships, the state can create more supportive and inclusive environments for its aging population, leading to improved quality of life and wellbeing for older New Jerseyans.

Applications will be evaluated based on how well they advance opportunities in arts and culture, community and economic development, education, environmental stewardship, and health and human services. The emphasis is on supporting initiatives that are locally driven and demonstrate a clear capacity to create tangible benefits. Funding requests are ideally between $500 and $5,000, though larger requests may be considered if they promise significant impact, demonstrating a flexible approach to achieve their strategic goals. Expected outcomes include a strengthened community fabric, enhanced access to vital resources, improved educational and economic prospects, greater environmental sustainability, and better health and human services for Jackson County residents. Measurable results will likely be tied to the specific objectives outlined in each awarded project, such as an increase in participation in cultural programs, job creation numbers, improvements in academic performance, conservation efforts, or the reach of health services.

The City of Tustin, through its Tustin Cares program, is offering the Main Street Digital Training and Grant Program (Main Street Digital Program) in collaboration with the Orange County Inland Empire Small Business Development Center Network (OCIE SBDC). This initiative aims to provide training and funding to local retail businesses, home-based businesses, and nonprofits, collectively referred to as "Businesses," that are looking to enhance their social media presence and/or increase revenue. This program aligns with a broader mission of supporting local economic growth and resilience, particularly for entities impacted by external factors such as COVID-19, as indicated by the allowance for businesses not in good standing due to pandemic-related issues. The target beneficiaries of the Main Street Digital Program are retail businesses, home-based businesses, and nonprofits physically located in Tustin. These entities must also possess an active Tustin business license since the first quarter of 2023 and have a minimum of two employees, including owners, and no more than twenty-five full-time equivalent employees as of December 31, 2023. Certain businesses are explicitly excluded, such as cannabis-related businesses, gambling facilities, adult entertainment businesses, massage parlors, largely cash-based businesses, and residential or real estate projects including short-term rental operators. The program's impact goals center on empowering these eligible businesses to improve their digital marketing capabilities and ultimately boost their financial performance. The program's priorities and focus areas are clearly on digital transformation and revenue generation through enhanced social media presence. By offering training, the program aims to equip businesses with the necessary skills to navigate the digital landscape effectively. The grant component provides crucial financial support, enabling businesses to implement these new strategies. This focus reflects a strategic priority to modernize local businesses and help them adapt to contemporary market demands, thereby strengthening the local economy from within. Expected outcomes include a significant increase in the social media presence of participating businesses and a measurable improvement in their revenue. While specific metrics for "measurable results" are not detailed beyond "increase their social media presence and/or revenue," the implicit theory of change is that by providing targeted training and financial assistance for digital marketing, businesses will become more competitive, attract a wider customer base, and achieve sustainable growth. The program's success will likely be evaluated based on the number of businesses trained, the grants disbursed, and the reported improvements in their digital engagement and financial health.
