The Administration for Community Living is a U.S. government agency focused on aging, disability, and community living, coordinating programs that support older adults and people with disabilities. Headquartered in Washington, District of Columbia, the agency collaborates with states and other federal partners to align housing, education, employment, and caregiving resources. Recent activity includes a 36-month initiative in Guilford County, North Carolina, to reduce adult maltreatment and reimagine elder care management for older adults. Its primary beneficiaries are older adults, people with disabilities, and their families, as well as state and local governments implementing related programs. ACL works with HUD to coordinate housing resources and with the Department of Education to promote integrated employment and break down silos among independent living, vocational rehabilitation, and special education programs. In 2025 the agency signaled a focus on cross-sector caregiver support demonstrations as part of its ongoing collaboration with partner agencies.
