Description

The Employment and Training Administration (ETA), U.S. Department of Labor (DOL, or the Department, or we), announces the availability of approximately $6,500,000 in grant funds authorized by the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) Section 167 for the National Farmworker Jobs Program (NFJP), Housing Services. The period of performance is 51 months and starts July 1, 2024, and ends September 30, 2028. The NFJP model aims to connect eligible migrant and seasonal farmworkers and their dependents to permanent housing that is owner-occupied, or occupied on a permanent, year-round basis (notwithstanding ownership). The permanent housing must be the persons primary residence to which they return to at the end of the work or training day. Additionally, the NFJP model aims to provide temporary housing that is not owner-occupied to eligible migrant and seasonal farmworkers whose employment requires occasional travel outside their normal commuting area. The Department will award at least 70 percent of the funds for permanent housing.
