CORPORATION FOR NATIONAL AND COMMUNITY SERVICE
AmeriCorps State Formula Program Grants: North Dakota and South
Dakota
AGENCY: Corporation for National and Community Service.
ACTION: Notice of availability of funds for new and renewal grants;
notice of availability of 1998 application guidelines.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Corporation for National and Community Service
(Corporation) announces the availability of approximately $450,000 to
support new national service programs in North Dakota and approximately
$450,000 to support new and renewal national service programs in South
Dakota. (CFDA #94.004).
DATES: To be considered, applications must be received by 3:30 p.m.,
Eastern Standard Time, June 23, 1998.
ADDRESSES: Applications must be submitted to the Corporation for
National Service, 1201 New York Avenue NW., Box SND, Washington, DC
20525. Facsimiles will not be accepted.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION: For further information contact James Cooper,
Corporation for National Service, 1201 New York Avenue, NW.,
Washington, DC 20525, phone (202) 606-5000, ext. 149, TDD (202) 565-
2799.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Application guidelines may be obtained by
calling Tanya Archie, Corporation for National Service, (202) 606-5000,
ext. 476.
These funds are authorized under the National and Community Service
Act of 1990, as amended, and represent the statute's population-based
provision of program assistance formula funds that, in most cases, flow
through approved state commissions on national and community service.
Because neither North Dakota nor South Dakota currently maintains an
approved state commission or alternative administrative entity,
eligible entities may apply directly to the Corporation for formula
funds. Local government agencies, institutions of higher education,
public or private nonprofit organizations, and Indian Tribes in North
Dakota and South Dakota are eligible entities. An organization
described in section 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, 26
U.S.C. 501(c)(4), that engages in lobbying activities is not eligible
for these funds.
Requirements relating to this assistance are published at 45 CFR
Parts 2510 et seq. and are further described in the application
guidelines. The Corporation will also provide Principles for High
Quality National Service Programs, which includes program examples,
upon request.
Organizations interested in applying for these program funds may
participate in one of two conference calls to be held on May 8, 1998
and June 5, 1998, respectively, during which Corporation staff will
provide technical assistance to potential applicants. The calls will
begin at 1:00 p.m. and conclude at 3:00 p.m. (EST). To register for
either call, please contact Rosa Harrison, at (202) 606-5000, ext. 433.
Upon registration, you will be apprised of the applicable 800 number
needed for participation.
The provision of these grants is subject to the availability of
appropriated funds.
Dated: April 9, 1998.
Kenneth L. Klothen,
General Counsel, Corporation for National and Community Service.
