The program aims to provide effective management, coordination, and support for individuals with long-term care needs, helping them transition from institutional settings into the community with appropriate services and support. A full version of the RFA is available on the DOH website, and applicants are encouraged to review the details of the program, including regional requirements, eligibility, and application guidelines.
