Care Across Generations Act

This bill aims to make changes to the Older Americans Act of 1965 by creating a grant program for activities that involve multiple generations in long-term care facilities. The program will award grants to organizations that operate child care facilities within long-term care facilities, coordinate activities between different generations, and expand or build new long-term care facilities for these purposes.

The bill also outlines requirements for entities applying for grants, including conducting evaluations and submitting reports on the effectiveness of their programs. The Assistant Secretary will prepare a report assessing the findings of these evaluations and make policy recommendations to Congress.

Definitions in the bill include terms like eligible entity, long-term care facility, multigenerational activity, and qualified child care facility. The grant period for each award is at least 36 months, and applicants must comply with infection control measures.
