What the grant funds

OHSEPR administers the U. S. Repatriation Program (Program), which provides temporary assistance to eligible U.S. citizens and their dependents (repatriates) returned by the Department of State from a foreign country because of (1) destitution, illness, war, threat of war, or a similar crisis, and who are without available resources, or (2) mental illness. Temporary assistance as defined in 42 U.S.C. 1313(c) is provided upon their arrival in the United States and is available initially for up to 90 days from a repatriate"s date of arrival in the United States. Temporary assistance is provided in the form of a service loan and is repayable to the U.S. Government. OHSEPR leads the planning, coordination, and execution of all domestic repatriation plans and operations conducted as part of the Program. Through Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs), they act in support of OHSEPR"s management of an emergency repatriation mission by providing temporary assistance to repatriates. The goal of this funding opportunity is to increase state or territorial readiness and capabilities for emergency repatriation operations through planning, training, and exercises, culminating in an update to the state or territory emergency repatriation plan. The purpose of this NOFO is to: 1) develop the knowledge, skills, and abilities of states or territories for emergency repatriation operations and 2) increase the number of states or territories sufficiently prepared for an emergency repatriation incident.
