TO: ALL NATIONAL FARMWORKER JOBS PROGRAM GRANTEES
FROM: ROSEMARY LAHASKY /s/
Deputy Assistant Secretary
SUBJECT: Revised Program Year 2017 Allocations for National Farmworker Jobs
Program Career Services and Training Grantees and Housing Grantees
1. Purpose. This Training and Employment Guidance (TEGL) 29-16, Change 1 provides
the National Farmworker Jobs Program (NFJP) grantees with revised program year (PY)
2017 allocations.
2. References.
a. Section 167 of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA);
b. 20 CFR, Part 685, October 18, 2016, WIOA Final Rule; and
c. TEGL 18-16: Program Eligibility and Enrollment Guidance for the National
Farmworker Jobs Program.
3. Background. TEGL No. 29-16, issued on June 23, 2017, announced PY 2017
allocations based on the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2017, Public Law 115-31 (the
Act), enacted May 5, 2017. The Act, Division H, Title I, sec. 106(b), allowed the
Secretary to set aside up to 0.5 percent of each discretionary appropriation for activities
related to program integrity. For 2017, the Department set aside the full 0.5 percent of
most discretionary appropriations, including migrant and seasonal farmworker program
formula grants and housing. This reduced the amount available for Career Services and
Training grants to $75,505,575 and Housing grants to $5,489,415.
This Change 1 TEGL reflects the restoration of the 0.5 percent originally set aside for
program integrity purposes. The total amount restored to the Career Services and
Training grants is $379,425 and to the Housing grants is $27,585, which results in
$75,885,000 for Career Services and Training grants and $5,517,000 for housing grants.
Note, upon award, these funds would be placed in a separate sub account and
require a separate ETA-9130 quarterly financial report to be submitted. Grantees
must expend all PY 2017 funding no later than September 30, 2018.
RESCISSIONS EXPIRATION DATE
None Continuing
4. Notice of Award and Required Documents for PY 2017 Revised Allocations. The
Department will issue notices of award (NOA) reflecting the restoration of funds to NFJP
grantees. In order to receive the funding, the Career Services and Training grantees and
Housing grantees must submit an electronically signed SF-424 (Application for Federal
Assistance) that reflect the exact restoration amount to [email protected] and “cc:” to the
appropriate regional Federal Project Officer no later than May 31, 2018. In addition to
the SF-424, grantees are required to submit a SF-424A (Budget Information) and budget
narrative by May 31, 2018; yet, if this is not possible, grantees must submit as soon as
possible after May 31, 2018.
Note, a non-response will be construed as a declination.
5. Action Requested. Grantees must submit all of the requested documents detailed in
section 4 to [email protected] and “cc:” to the appropriate regional Federal Project Officer
no later than May 31, 2018.
6. Inquiries. Please address questions regarding this guidance to your regional Federal
Project Officer.
