adults living in affordable communities age safely and securely at home. Ten organi- zations in Maryland and 12 in Michigan make up the second round of the program’s Scale What’s Working grants. Funded by the Edward N. and Della L. Thome Memorial Foundation, Bank of America trustee, the grants, ranging from $94,625 to $350,000, will help these organizations scale existing aging in place initiatives with a track record of success to more than 6,000 older adults. "There is a deep need for continued support of organiza- tions that serve the growing population of older adults who want to age in their homes and communities,” said Stephany De Scisciolo , VP, Impact, Evaluation, and Population Health at Enterprise. “For this round of grants, we built on our previous success and ex- tended the grant opportunity to any organization providing home-based services, includ- ing those who help older adults modify their homes to make it easier for them to continue to age in place.” The funded programs focus specifically on improving older adults’ physical, mental, and financial health, supporting their productive aging and so- cial engagement, and making improvements to their homes to enhance their physical safety. In addition to the funding, each Thome Aging Well grantee will participate in a multi-year learning collaborative, receive technical assistance in program evaluation, and have the oppor- tunity to network with funders. The grantees are: Maryland • Ascension St. Agnes, Baltimore • Habitat for Humanity Metro Maryland, Silver Spring • Habitat for Humanity of Wicomico County, Salisbury • LeadingAge Maryland,
