Subject: Single-Source Program
Expansion Supplement.
ACTION: Notice to Award a Single-Source
Program Expansion Supplement to the
North Dakota Department of Human
Services (NDHS) under the North
Dakota Wilson-Fish Program.
CFDA#: 93.583.
Legislative Authority: The Refugee Act

is an alternative to the traditional Stateadministered refugee assistance program
for providing integrated assistance and

Immigrants, Cuban and Haitian
Entrants, Trafficking Victims and Iraqi/
Afghani SIV’s. North Dakota is one of 12

under the North Dakota Wilson-Fish
Program.
The primary reason for the grantee’s
supplemental request is a higher
number of arrivals than anticipated
when the grantee’s budget was
submitted and approved last year. The
Refugee Act of 1980 mandates that the
Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR)
reimburse States and Wilson-Fish
projects for the costs of cash and
medical assistance for newly arriving
refugees. Since 1991, ORR has
reimbursed States and Wilson-Fish
agencies for providing cash and medical
assistance to eligible individuals during
their first eight months in the United
States.
Hence, the supplement is consistent
with the purposes of the Wilson-Fish
Program, the Refugee Act of 1980, and
ORR policy.
