Opportunity Information: Apply for ETA TEGL 23 20
The Program Year (PY) 2021 National Farmworker Jobs Program (NFJP) opportunity covers two related funding streams administered by the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL), Employment and Training Administration (ETA): (1) Career Services and Training grants and (2) NFJP Housing grants for migrant and seasonal farmworkers. It is issued under the authority of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) and reflects the four-year NFJP grant cycle that began July 1, 2020. Rather than functioning like a brand-new competitive program for all applicants, this guidance is delivered through ETA Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) 23-20 and is mainly intended to notify existing NFJP grantees of their PY 2021 funding allocations and to spell out the required paperwork and submission steps needed to actually draw down funds for the year.
Funding levels for PY 2021 are set by the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2021 (Public Law 116-260), enacted December 27, 2020. Congress appropriated $87,083,000 for NFJP formula grants; after $137,000 was reserved for program integrity activities, $86,946,000 was allotted for distribution. Congress also provided $6,256,000 for migrant and seasonal farmworker housing, with a statutory requirement that not less than 70 percent of housing funds be awarded for permanent housing. In addition, $557,000 was provided for discretionary purposes. This TEGL explains that ETA will issue individual Housing grant awards based on the outcomes of the 2020 housing grant competition, while still ensuring compliance with the rule that at least 70 percent of housing dollars support permanent housing.
For the Career Services and Training portion, ETA distributes funds using an administrative formula rather than a fully open competition. The original formula methodology is described in the Federal Register notice published May 19, 1999 (64 FR 27390), and the approach was revised in a later Federal Register notice dated July 11, 2018 (83 FR 32151). The PY 2021 allotments in this TEGL incorporate “hold harmless” transition protections (sometimes described as stop-loss/stop-gain limits) to help grantees adjust to the updated formula results without abrupt swings in funding. Specifically, for PY 2021 each state service area is ensured an amount equal to at least 95 percent of its PY 2020 allotment percentage share, applied to the PY 2021 formula funds available. Additional detail on this transition approach is referenced in the Federal Register notice published May 10, 2021 (86 FR 24891).
The practical purpose of the announcement is compliance and continuity of operations: grantees must submit required documents to receive PY 2021 funding. The required submissions include program plans and budget documents (and other required grant paperwork as specified by ETA). The opportunity is categorized as discretionary in the listing, uses a grant funding instrument, and is associated with CFDA number 17.264 (Employment and Training Assistance to Migrant and Seasonal Farmworkers). The eligible applicants field is listed broadly as “Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification),” which in context generally aligns with the NFJP’s structure of designated service providers and, for housing, entities selected through the relevant competition.
Key administrative details provided include an opportunity number of ETA TEGL 23-20, a creation date of June 2, 2021, and an original closing date of June 15, 2021, which functions as the deadline for receipt of the required submissions under this particular announcement. The listing also notes an award ceiling of $8,301,291 and an expected number of awards of 60, reflecting the scale and structure of the NFJP grantee network and the fact that allocations and awards vary by service area and grant type.Apply for ETA TEGL 23 20
