Grants may be awarded to the States (as defined in the funding opportunity announcement) to conduct demonstration projects for purposes of developing core training competencies and certification programs for personal or home care aides. It is expected that the training standards established under these State grants would be utilized as a "Gold Standard" for future training of personal and home care aides.
