OpportunityTitle: Reemployment &amp; System Integration Dislocated Worker Grants
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: The organizations that are eligible to apply for funding under this opportunity are the State agencies responsible for administering WIOA title I activities, including those in Outlying Areas.  States may choose to pool the funds available to each State under this grant opportunity as part of a consortium project designed to promote the reemployment of dislocated workers in multiple States.  If States choose to apply for funds designed to support a State consortium, the member States must enter into a Memorandum of Understanding that details the States&#8217; joint commitments in regard to the project.
Description: The Department is making up to $65 million available under this TEGL. Applicants may apply for grants of up to $1.1 million per State or per Outlying Area. The final amount of each grant is dependent on the number of applicants and the cumulative amount of funding requested. Awards made under this TEGL are subject to the availability of Federal funds. If the cumulative funding requested by all applicants exceeds the amount of funds available, all grant awards will be reduced proportionately. Conversely, if the cumulative requests are lower than the total available amount or if additional funds become available, grant awards may be increased proportionately. As provided in section 13, the Department may negotiate funding levels and program elements. Grant recipients may be required to revise budget documents before award execution to account for discrepancies between funding requests and actual award amounts. The period of performance for RSI-DWG grants is two years, and grant funds will be available for expenditure through September 30, 2018. However, the Department reserves the right to provide period of performance extensions beyond this date, as it deems appropriate and necessary, to achieve the purposes of these awards.
