National Aging Program Information System (NAPIS)

State Program Reports on the Home and Community Based and Nutrition Services and Elder Rights (Titles III and VII)

The State Program Reports are the primary information system for states to report on the Older Americans Act programs of supportive services, nutrition, caregiver support, etc. which they provide. It includes information about who the OAA participants are, what services they receive, and what funding is expended for this program. SPR reports also serve an a critical data source for measures of the performance of OAA programs.

Performance Outcomes

AoA’s Performance Outcomes Measures project (POMP) helps States and Area Agencies on Aging assess their own program performance, while assisting AoA to meet the accountability provisions of the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) and the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) program assessment requirements.

Through annual performance reports, Federal agencies provide detailed information on their progress in meeting program performance objectives. Congress and OMB now use performance information to support budget decisions. Many state and local governments are requiring similar systems of accountability to document results and justify funding.

In order to gather information on the performance of its program, the Administration on Aging surveys the participants in its Older Americans Act programs. These national surveys provide a portrait of who receives these services and how they assess the quality of the services received.
