View Award Description

CONGRESSIONAL MANDATES - Catholic Charities Hawai`i (CCH) proposes to implement Project HOPE (Helping Others, Promoting Employment) to assist elders who are aging in place. The goal of this one year demonstration project is to help frail elders maintain independent living by providing a network of quality and affordable community-based services, including a component of employment opportunities for individuals with developmental disabilities and/or mental retardation (DD/MR) to provide chore. The project will increase affordable service options for elders and help CCH develop infrastructure and processes to continue the project beyond the funded period through a sustainable fee structure. The objectives are: 1) Conduct market research and create a business plan to focus on the consumer demands of low to moderate income frail elders and their family caregivers; 2) Provide case management, transportation and chore services for frail elders at affordable and sustainable rates; 3) Establish system infrastructure to maintain private and Medicaid billing; 4) Train individuals with DD/MR to provide chore services for frail elders through supported employment; and 5) Evaluate the economic sustainability of the model. The expected outcomes are: 1) At risk frail elderly clients will maintain independent living for six months; 2) Family caregivers will experience reduced stress and increased positive attitude toward caregiving; and 3) Individuals with DD/MR will be employed for at least three months upon completion of initial training and job placement. The products include: 1) Final report, including evaluation results; 2) Training modules for individuals with DD/MR to provide chore and elders/caregivers who employ DD/MR chore workers.
