How to apply...
Application Procedure:
The Division of Older Worker Programs will provide information concerning proper application, format and content. This program is subject to the provisions of OMB Circular Nos. A-110 and A-102. The standard application forms as furnished by the Federal agency and required by OMB Circular No. A-102 must be used for this program by State and local governments. Governors must submit annual State Senior Employment Service Coordination Plans to the Secretary of Labor for approval, created with participation of aging organizations, area agencies on aging, workforce boards, SCSEP grantees, and other providers of employment services. Governors may comment on SCSEP grant proposals prior to their submission by the applicant, and make recommendations to the Secretary of Labor to improve the distribution of SCSEP services. National grantees serving older American Indians need not participate in developing the State plan, but must collaborate with the Secretary to develop a plan for services to all older American Indians (Section 503).
Note: Each program will indicate whether applications are to be submitted to the Federal headquarters, regional or local office, or to a State or local government office.
Award Procedure:
Awards are made directly to eligible applicants by the Employment and Training Administration of the U.S. Department of Labor.
Note: Grant payments may be made by a letter of credit, advance by Treasury check, or reimbursement by Treasury check.
Awards may be made by the headquarters office directly to the applicant, an agency field office, a regional office,
or by an authorized county office. The assistance may pass through the initial applicant for further distribution by
intermediate level applicants to groups or individuals in the private sector.
