U.S Territories or Possessions; Native American Tribally Designated Organizations; State and Local Workforce Development Boards (SWDBs/LWDBs) established under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA); Faith-based Organizations; and Other State and Local Government Agencies. Faith-based organizations are encouraged to apply. Those that meet the eligibility requirements may receive awards under this funding opportunity. DOL will not, in the selection of recipients and administration of the grant, discriminate on the basis of an organization's religious character, affiliation, exercise, or lack thereof, or on the basis of conduct that would not be considered grounds to favor or disfavor a similarly situated secular organization. Among eligible applicants listed above, the applicant agency or organization must also maintain a physical location in the proposed Service Delivery Area. Please see Section IV.C.1 of the FOA for more information about the physical location. Any organization whose federal grant was terminated, as described in 2 C.F.R. § 200.340, before the expiration of the period of performance (PoP) established by that grant's FOA will be ineligible to apply for any HVRP FOA for a three-year period (e.g. FOA-VETS-26-01, FOA-VETS-27-01, and/or FOA-VETS 28-01) following the termination date, unless the termination was due to unanticipated circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the grant recipient (e.g., natural disaster). A termination is defined as an action initiated by either the grant recipient or the awarding federal agency that terminated the grant prior to the conclusion of the PoP.
