Grassley also plans to write to Sen. Pete Domenici, chairman of the Senate Budget Committee, urging increased funding for Title XX of the Social Security Act, the Social Services Block Grant.

The family caregiver support proposal does this by adding services to a successful network of aging centers. Second, we have to fund good programs that serve older Americans at full levels.
Peace of mind can come from access to quality services.
