Description: The Professional Fellows Division in the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs&#145; Office of Citizen Exchanges invites proposal submissions for one of three separate &#8213;Empower&#8214; programs: the Empower Community Program, the Empower Access Program, and the Empower Partnership Program. U.S. public and non-profit organizations meeting the provisions described in the Internal Revenue Code section 26 USC 501(c)(3) may submit a proposal in response to this Request for Grant Proposals (RFGP). The three &#8213;Empower&#8214; Programs described in this RFGP support professional exchanges between the people of the United States and their counterparts in other countries who work to provide services and support to persons with disabilities and the communities in which they live. Utilizing fellowship models and institutional linkages, the Empower Programs will provide professional development opportunities for individuals and organizations aimed at strengthening institutional knowledge and organizational capacity, enhancing outreach capabilities, and increasing the resource base of the communities in which participants live and serve.
