FY 2011 Funding Opportunity Announcement for Reception and Placement Program

The Reception and Placement (R&P) Program for the initial reception and placement of refugees in the United States is managed by the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration of the Department of State (hereinafter referred to as the "Bureau").

The purpose of the R&P Program is to promote

credit:


the successful reception and placement of all persons who are admitted to the United States under the U. S. Refugee Admissions Program.

For the purpose of this announcement, “refugee” is defined as a person admitted to the United States under section 207(c) of the INA, as amended, or a person to whom eligibility for the resettlement assistance available to individuals admitted under section 207 (c) has been extended by statute.

To accomplish this goal, the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) recognizes the desirability for public or private non-profit organizations to provide R&P services and to assist refugees to achieve economic self-sufficiency as quickly as possible.

The program goals and objectives set forth in this announcement have been established in accordance with these statutory provisions.

The Bureau partners with and provides partial financial support to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to carry out the R&P Program.

Participating organizations are expected to combine the Bureau’s financial assistance with existing and projected private resources for the provision of R&P services for refugees admitted to the United States during the period October 1, 2010 through September 30, 201 1. The Bureau intends to award Cooperative Agreements (CA) for FY 2011 to well-qualified non-profit organizations able to offer a range of services in multiple locations across the United States.

This will include applicants that have demonstrated satisfactory performance under previous agreements with the Bureau and/or applicants that meet the selection criteria described below and have demonstrated the capacity to provide required services.

Applicants should understand that participation in the FY 2010 R&P Program is neither a pre-condition for nor a guarantee of continued participation in FY 201 1. In order to be considered for participation in the program, applicants must:
A.

Be well-established social service providers with demonstrated case management expertise and experience managing a network of affiliates that provide reception and placement or similar services to refugees or other migrant populations in the United States; B.
