SUBJECT:        Revised Program Year 2020 Planning and Allotments for SCSEP National
                Grantees

1. Purpose. This Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL), Change 1 provides
   current SCSEP national grantees with revised allocations for Program Year (PY) 2020, and
   provides a two-month extension for operations for current national grantees to allow the
   transition to grants that will be awarded under the SCSEP Funding Announcement.

2. Action Requested. Current national grantees must submit the following documentation to
   grants.gov as soon as possible to receive the additional funds to operate during the extended
   two months:
      a. SF-424: https://www.grants.gov/forms/sf-424-family.html;
      b. SF-424A: https://apply07.grants.gov/apply/forms/readonly/SF424A-V1.0.pdf;
      c. Revised Budget Narrative for the allocations (for detailed instructions on the Budget
           Narrative, refer to TEGL 22-19 Attachment II); and
      d. A short statement requesting that optional special requests remain intact for the two-
           month period, if applicable.

   Note that the Generic Program Narrative for Current National Grantees included as
   Attachment III.b of TEGL 22-19 will remain in effect as part of the grant agreement for these
   two-month awards. Successful grantees under the 2020 competition (FOA-ETA-20-09) will
   still have the option to submit optional special requests for the remaining two quarters of PY
   2020 (January 1, 2021 through June 30, 2021) under forthcoming instructions.
3. Summary and Background.

   a. Revised Allotments – National Grantees
   ETA issued FOA-ETA-20-09 in May 2020, notifying the public of the national competition
   and the availability of SCSEP funding for services. Training and Employment Guidance
   Letter (TEGL) 22-19, released on May 28, 2020, outlined planning instructions and
   allocations for current national grantees for the first four months of PY 2020 to continue
   SCSEP services during the competition and transition. The original TEGL 22-19 provided
 RESCISSIONS                                             EXPIRATION DATE
 TEGL 22-19                                              February 28, 2021

   funding and allocation information for national grantees to operate through October 31, 2020.
   This Change 1 includes funding instructions and allocations necessary to extend funding
   through December 31, 2020, ensuring adequate time for participants to transition from the
   incumbent grantee to the new grantee in counties where the grantee will change as a result of
   the competition. Consequently, the effective date for the new competitive awards will be
   January 1, 2021.

   As noted above, to receive the additional funding under this change TEGL, current grantees
   are required to submit the required documents as soon as possible. The remaining PY 2020
   funds will be allocated after the announcement of the FOA results.

   Grantees are required as a condition of the grant award to assist in transition activities during
   the remainder of the first half of PY 2020 to ensure the least disruption for participants.

4. Notice of Award (NOA). The Department will issue NOAs with the allocation amounts
   specified in this TEGL for all current SCSEP national grantees for November 1, 2020
   through December 31, 2020.
