Auxiliary
Grants
(AG)
Some people who live in an adult care residence (ACR) or an
adult family care home can receive money from the
Auxiliary
Grants
(AG)
Program. The money received, plus other income, is used by
the person to pay for care provided by the home.
Individuals who get money from AG also get a Medicaid Card to
use for medical bills.
To be eligible for the Auxiliary Grants Program, a person
must:
 |
Be 65 or older, or be blind, or be disabled; |
 |
Have countable resources of less than $2,000 for one person,
or $3,000 for a couple; |
 |
Have a countable income that is less than the approved rate
for the home plus an allowance for personal items; |
 |
File an application at the local department of social services
in the Virginia locality where the person lives or lived
before entering the adult care residence or adult family care
home; |
 |
Have been assessed and determined to need ACR care or adult
family placement. |
