Fiscal Year (FY) 2011 through FY 2013 Stand Down Grant Requests
Document Number: 2011-5347
Type: Notice
Date: 2011-03-10
Agency: Department of Labor, Veterans' Employment and Training Service
The U.S. Department of Labor (USDOL), Veterans' Employment and Training Service (VETS) supports local Stand Down events that assist homeless Veterans. A Stand Down is an event held in a local community where homeless Veterans are provided with a wide variety of social services. VETS is now accepting applications for grant awards to fund Stand Down events in FY 2011. Stand Down funding is a non-competitive grant awarded on a first-come, first-served basis until available funding is exhausted. Under this announcement, VETS anticipates that up to $600,000 will be available to award approximately seventy grants in each of the three fiscal years covered by this solicitation. The Federal fiscal year is the accounting period of the federal government. It begins on October 1st and ends on September 30th of the next calendar year. A maximum of $10,000 per multi-day event or $7,000 for a one-day event can be awarded. Availability of Stand Down grant funding each fiscal year will be dependent upon Congressional appropriation. Stand Down grant funding is awarded for a specific event on a specific date. Organizations planning Stand Down events in subsequent fiscal years must submit a complete, new application for grant funding if desired, and should not assume the application will automatically be approved. Applications for Stand Down funds will be accepted from State Workforce Agencies, State and local Workforce Investment Boards, Veterans Service Organizations (VSOs), local public agencies, and non- profit organizations including community and faith-based organizations. The USDOL is not authorized to award grant funds to organizations that are registered with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as a 501(c)(4) organization. All applications for Stand Down grant funding must be submitted to the appropriate State Director for Veterans' Employment and Training (DVET) at least ninety (90) days prior to the event. Address and contact information for each State DVET can be found at: https:// www.dol.gov/vets/aboutvets/contacts/main.htm. Events approved for grant funding in any fiscal year must be held prior to December 31st of the following fiscal year. For example, all Stand Down events awarded funding for FY 2011 (October 1, 2010 through September 30, 2011) must be held on or before December 31, 2011. Stand Down grant awards are contingent upon a Federal appropriation or a continuing resolution each Federal fiscal year. Therefore, applications submitted after July 1st for events to be held after September 30th may be held for consideration for funding contingent upon Federal funding availability. Grant applicants should not obligate requested grant funding toward Stand Down expenses unless officially notified of a grant award.
