Examples of funded projects...
The Employment and Training Administration makes grant awards available to 50 States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Northern Mariana Islands, American Samoa, Guam and Virgin Islands along with twelve national nonprofit organizations and the U.S. Forest Service. A variety of organizational arrangements are used to administer the SCSEP projects. Many of the sponsors have contractual relationships and agreements with government and nonprofit organizations. In many cases the SCSEP program is operated by the State aging agency and within sub-State areas by area agencies on aging. Some of the national sponsoring organizations administer the SCSEP local projects directly through their affiliates, while others subgrant funds to local agencies. Each local project is required to coordinate its activities with local WIA projects, the State employment service, and the State Office of the Aging. Most of the projects operated under the auspices of the SCSEP provide service through host agencies to the community at large or to the elderly community. Some of the activities have included transportation for the elderly, serving the community as librarians, teachers aides, nutritional aides, etc. Transition to unsubsidized employment of participants is another service of the SCSEP.
