Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 192 / Wednesday, October 4, 2006 / Notices
This notice announces the award of a
single-source non-competition
continuation award to the Presbyterian
Hospitality House (PHH) to complete
the third and final year of a grant that
was awarded originally in Fiscal Year
2004 to the Fairbanks Native
Association (FNA). Continuation funds
that were allocated for this three-year
grant are now relinquished by FNA.
On September 20, 2005, PHH was
awarded a one-year non-competitive
successor grant to replace FNA as the
grantee. PHH is a leader in assessing the
need and benefits of positive youth
development in Fairbanks, Alaska.
There was very little disruption of
activities during the transfer of the
grant. Continuation of these activities in
central Alaska by an entity that already
supports homeless youth is the best
option for successful completion of the
project.
The need for this Basic Center still
exists as it did when the grant was
originally awarded in the Fiscal Year
2004. There will be no significant
change in project activities. There is no
new funding available for Basic Center
program in the State of Alaska for FY
2007.

This notice announces the award of a
single-source non-competition
continuation award to the Texas Center
for Disability Studies, University of
Texas, Austin (the Center) to address the
needs of underserved and unserved
individuals affected by Hurricane
Katrina.
Lessons learned from Hurricane
Katrina reflected that there was
insufficient capacity in relief efforts to
address the needs of individuals with
developmental disabilities during and
following the hurricane. With this
award this Center, which currently has
a grant from the Administration on
Developmental Disabilities (ADD) to
operate a University Center for
Excellence in Developmental
Disabilities (UCEDD), will expand its
mission to address gaps in the Texas
disaster relief efforts and the subsequent
services to people with developmental
disabilities. This proposed project is
consistent with the Developmental
Disabilities Assistance and Bill of Rights
Act, which among other provisions,
requires that UCEDDs assist
underserved and unserved populations
of individuals with developmental
disabilities and their families through
community outreach, capacity building,
and systems change.
The proposed project will develop
and conduct training around Texas that
will increase emergency preparedness
by creating a pool of disaster response
systems navigators ready and able to
assist individuals with developmental
disabilities and their families in a
disaster. The navigators will be trained
to navigate both State and local health
and human service systems in order to
quickly identify and access services for
the targeted individuals. The navigator
model proposed could easily be adapted
by other States to improve their
emergency readiness as well.
The outcomes of this project will
strengthen Texas’ ability to respond to
the needs of individuals with
developmental disabilities in the event
of a disaster by:
1. Expanding awareness of the needs
of individuals with developmental
disabilities in the event of a disaster.
2. Expanding the pool of volunteer
disaster response navigators for
individuals with developmental
disabilities.
3. Creating a data base of these
navigators for the Red Cross, so that
these navigators may be mobilized with
other first response teams.

plan to include the emergency services
and supports needed by individuals
with developmental disabilities.
