§ 641.400   What entities are eligible to apply to the Department for funds to administer SCSEP community service projects?

(a) National grants. Entities eligible to apply for national grants include nonprofit organizations, Federal public agencies, and Tribal organizations. These entities must be capable of administering a multi-State program. State and local agencies may not apply for these funds.

(b) National grants in a State. Section 514(e)(3) of the OAA permits nonprofit organizations, public agencies, and States to receive SCSEP funds when a national grantee in a State fails to meet its performance measures in the second and third year of failure. The poor performing grantee that had its funds competed is not eligible to compete for the same funds.

(c) State grants. Section 506(e) of the OAA requires the Department to enter into agreements with each State to provide SCSEP services. States may use individual State agencies, political subdivisions of a State, a combination of such political subdivisions, or a national grantee operating in the State to administer SCSEP funds. If the State's funds are competed under section 514(f) of the OAA, other agencies within the State, political subdivisions of a State, a combination of political subdivisions of a State, and national grantees operating in the State are eligible to apply for funds. Other States may not apply for this funding.
