| PURPOSE: THE OVERALL PURPOSE OF THE OLDER ADULT HOME MODIFICATION PROGRAM (OAHMP) IS TO ASSIST EXPERIENCED NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS, STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, AND PUBLIC HOUSING AUTHORITIES IN UNDERTAKING COMPREHENSIVE PROGRAMS THAT MAKE SAFETY AND FUNCTIONAL HOME MODIFICATIONS REPAIRS AND RENOVATIONS TO MEET THE NEEDS OF LOW-INCOME ELDERLY HOMEOWNERS. THE GOAL OF THE HOME MODIFICATION PROGRAM IS TO ENABLE LOW-INCOME ELDERLY PERSONS TO REMAIN IN THEIR HOMES THROUGH LOW-COST, LOW BARRIER, HIGH IMPACT HOME MODIFICATIONS TO REDUCE OLDER ADULTS’ RISK OF FALLING, IMPROVE GENERAL SAFETY, INCREASE ACCESSIBILITY, AND TO IMPROVE THEIR FUNCTIONAL ABILITIES IN THEIR HOME. THIS WILL ENABLE OLDER ADULTS TO REMAIN IN THEIR HOMES, THAT IS, TO “AGE IN PLACE,” RATHER THAN MOVE TO NURSING HOMES OR OTHER ASSISTED CARE FACILITIES.; ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED: HUD’S OFFICE OF LEAD HAZARD CONTROL AND HEALTHY HOMES IS MAKING AVAILABLE GRANT FUNDS AND TRAINING RESOURCES TO NON-FEDERAL ENTITIES. UNDER THE OAHMP AWARD, EXPERIENCED NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS, STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, AND PUBLIC HOUSING AUTHORITIES WILL DELIVER HOME MODIFICATION SERVICES TO QUALIFIED BENEFICIARIES. THE OAHMP MODEL FOCUSES ON LOW-COST, HIGH-IMPACT HOME MODIFICATIONS. EXAMPLES OF THESE HOME MODIFICATIONS INCLUDE INSTALLATION OF GRAB BARS, RAILINGS, AND LEVER-HANDLED DOORKNOBS AND FAUCETS, AS WELL AS THE INSTALLATION OF ADAPTIVE EQUIPMENT, SUCH AS TEMPORARY RAMP, TUB/SHOWER TRANSFER BENCH, HANDHELD SHOWER HEAD, RAISED TOILET SEAT, RISERS FOR CHAIRS AND SOFAS, AND NON-SLIP STRIPS FOR TUB/SHOWER OR STAIRS. THE OAHMP MODEL PRIMARILY RELIES ON THE EXPERTISE OF A LICENSED OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST (OT) TO ENSURE THAT THE HOME MODIFICATION ADDRESSES THE CLIENT’S SPECIFIC GOALS AND NEEDS AND PROMOTES THEIR FULL PARTICIPATION IN DAILY LIFE ACTIVITIES. THE OT IS TRAINED TO EVALUATE CLIENTS’ FUNCTIONAL ABILITIES AND THE HOME ENVIRONMENT AND HAS KNOWLEDGE OF THE RANGE OF LOW-COST, HIGH-IMPACT ENVIRONMENTAL MODIFICATIONS AND ADAPTIVE EQUIPMENT USED TO OPTIMIZE THE HOME ENVIRONMENT AND INCREASE INDEPENDENCE. THE GRANTEES, WHICH ARE EXPERIENCED IN PROVIDING SERVICES TO SENIORS, WILL DELIVER HOME MODIFICATION SERVICES TO MORE THAN 1,900 SENIOR FAMILIES IN BOTH URBAN COMMUNITIES AND COMMUNITIES WITH SUBSTANTIAL RURAL POPULATIONS.; EXPECTED OUTCOMES: PROVIDED THROUGH HUD’S OLDER ADULTS HOME MODIFICATION PROGRAM (OAHMP), THESE GRANTS ENABLE LOW-INCOME ELDERLY PERSONS TO REMAIN IN THEIR HOMES THROUGH LOW-COST, LOW BARRIER, HIGH IMPACT HOME MODIFICATIONS TO REDUCE OLDER ADULTS’ RISK OF FALLING, IMPROVE GENERAL SAFETY, INCREASE ACCESSIBILITY, AND IMPROVE THEIR FUNCTIONAL ABILITIES IN THEIR HOME. THESE INVESTMENTS WILL DELIVER HOME MODIFICATION SERVICES TO MORE THAN 1,900 SENIOR FAMILIES TO ENABLE OLDER ADULTS TO REMAIN IN THEIR HOMES – TO “AGE IN PLACE” – RATHER THAN MOVE TO NURSING HOMES OR OTHER ASSISTED CARE FACILITIES.; INTENDED BENEFICIARIES: THE OAHMP PROVIDE FUNDING TO EXPERIENCED NON-PROFITS, STATES, LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, AND PUBLIC HOUSING AGENCIES FOR SAFETY AND FUNCTIONAL HOME MODIFICATION REPAIRS TO MEET THE NEEDS OF LOW-INCOME ELDERLY HOMEOWNERS TO ENABLE THEM TO REMAIN IN THEIR RESIDENCES AT LEAST ONE HALF OF THE FUNDS SHALL BE AVAILABLE TO COMMUNITIES WITH SUBSTANTIAL RURAL POPULATIONS.

| DESCRIPTION:THE PURPOSE OF THIS AGREEMENT IS TO PROVIDE FUNDING TO CALIFORNIA GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF PLANNING AND RESEARCH (OPR). AS CLIMATE CHANGE CONTINUES TO INCREASE THE FREQUENCY AND INTENSITY OF EXTREME HEAT ACROSS THE WESTERN UNITED STATES, THERE IS AN URGENT NEED FOR ADAPTATION RESOURCES AND PLANNING GUIDANCE IN CALIFORNIA. TO FILL THIS GAP AND DEVELOP SCALABLE RESOURCES WITH A HOLISTIC PERSPECTIVE ON EXTREME HEAT PLANNING, LOCAL JURISDICTIONS MUST ENGAGE IN COORDINATED ADAPTATION PLANNING THAT INTEGRATES COMMUNITY PERSPECTIVES AND LOCAL PLANNING EXPERTISE. THIS PROJECT WILL USE A COMMUNITY-CENTERED APPROACH TO EXTREME HEAT ADAPTATION PLANNING INFORMED BY LOCAL EXPERTS AND COMMUNITY LEADERS WITHIN RIVERSIDE AND SAN BERNARDINO COUNTIES. RESIDENTS IN THIS REGION, INCLUDING THOSE IN RURAL AND GEOGRAPHICALLY ISOLATED AREAS OF THE COUNTIES, EXPERIENCE BLISTERING SUMMER TEMPERATURES AND ARE AMONG THE MOST VULNERABLE TO EXTREME HEAT. THIS COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT PROVIDES FULL FEDERAL FUNDING IN THE AMOUNT OF $999,994.00. ACTIVITIES:THROUGH A THREE-PHASED COLLABORATIVE PROCESS, OPR AND ITS PARTNERS WILL DEVELOP EXTREME HEAT ADAPTATION RESOURCES. PHASE 1 WILL DEFINE EXTREME HEAT RISKS AND VULNERABILITIES THAT RESONATE WITH COMMUNITY PARTNERS AND IDENTIFY GAPS AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR ADAPTATION STRATEGIES THAT BUILD TOWARDS HOLISTIC PLANNING AND POLICY GUIDANCE FOR EXTREME HEAT. PHASE 2 WILL PRODUCE AN EXTREME HEAT ADAPTATION PLANNING GUIDE, IDENTIFY PRIORITIES FOR COMMUNICATION OF THESE RISKS AND ACTIONS, AND DEVELOP CASE STUDY EXAMPLES. IN PHASE 3, THE TEAM WILL LEAD OUTREACH AND ENGAGEMENT TO EVALUATE THE UTILITY OF THESE PLANNING GUIDES FOR DECISION MAKING IN COMMUNITIES AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS. IN THE PROCESS, THE TEAM WILL DOCUMENT LESSONS LEARNED AND IDENTIFY OPPORTUNITIES TO EXPAND THE USE AND REACH OF EXTREME HEAT PLANNING RESOURCES IN GEOGRAPHIES AND JURISDICTIONS FACING SIMILAR CHALLENGES. SUBRECIPIENT:THIS GRANT INCLUDES SUBAWARDS.OUTCOMES:THE ANTICIPATED DELIVERABLES INCLUDE: (1) AGENDA, MEETING NOTES AND ATTENDANCE RECORDS FROM ALL PUBLIC OUTREACH ENGAGEMENTS INCLUDING COMMUNITY ADVISORY MEETINGS, OUTREACH ENGAGEMENTS, COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS AND TRIBAL FOCUSED LISTENING SESSIONS AND OTHER TRIBAL ENGAGEMENTS; (2) FINAL VERSIONS OF THE EXTREME HEAT ADAPTATION PLAN ALIGNMENT TOOLKIT CASE STUDIES; AND (3) AGENDA, MEETING NOTES AND ATTENDANCE RECORDS FROM QUARTERLY TEAM MEETINGS AND ANNUAL/FINAL REPORTS. THE EXPECTED OUTCOMES INCLUDE A COMMUNITY-INFORMED, COORDINATED POLICY AND PLAN ALIGNMENT, INTEGRATING WIDE-RANGING PERSPECTIVES ON THE CHALLENGES OF EXTREME HEAT AND ALIGNING WITH CALIFORNIA EXTREME HEAT PLANNING GOALS, IS SIGNIFICANT. THROUGH EVALUATING PROJECT IMPACT AND INFORMING FUTURE OUTREACH AND ENGAGEMENT PLANS, THIS APPROACH ENHANCES EXTREME HEAT ADAPTATION PLANNING AND ACTION. FURTHERMORE, THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPAND THESE PRACTICES TO OTHER LOCAL GOVERNMENTS CAN LEAD TO BROADER ADOPTION OF COMMUNITY-CENTERED ADAPTATION PLANNING. IN PARTICULAR, THE ENHANCED EXTREME HEAT RESILIENCE PLANNING FOR VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES IN RIVERSIDE AND SAN BERNARDINO COUNTIES EXEMPLIFIES THE UTILITY AND SCALABILITY OF PARTNERSHIPS FRAMED AROUND BOTTOM-UP COLLABORATIONS. THIS APPROACH NOT ONLY PROVIDES ADAPTATION GUIDANCE RESOURCES FOR COMMUNITIES LACKING CAPACITY TO DEVELOP EXTREME HEAT PLANS, BUT ALSO SERVES AS A MODEL FOR EFFECTIVE COMMUNITY-CENTERED ADAPTATION PLANNING. BY INVOLVING RESIDENTS, CBOS, LOCAL GOVERNMENT, AND STATE AGENCIES, THIS APPROACH DEMONSTRATES A PROACTIVE AND INCLUSIVE STRATEGY FOR ADDRESSING THE CHALLENGES OF EXTREME HEAT IN VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES. THE INTENDED BENEFICIARIES INCLUDE CALIFORNIA'S MOST VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES ARE AT INCREASED RISK TO CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTS AND HAVE LIMITED RESOURCES TO COPE WITH, ADAPT TO, AND RECOVER FROM CLIMATE-RELATED DISASTERS.
