What the grant funds
The Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM) seeks concept notes proposing technical assistance or other types of specialized projects to develop and expand the capacity and universe of partners participating in refugee resettlement in the United States, particularly the Reception and Placement (R&P) Program and to strengthen the outcomes of refugees resettled through the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program. The R&P Program is funded by PRM to ensure optimal placement of refugees in local resettlement communities across the United States. After arrival in these communities, local R&P agencies provide direct assistance to refugees during their initial resettlement period of 30-90 days after arrival. **Information Session Details** Please note that PRM will hold an information session from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM Eastern time on Thursday, June 16 during which we will walk through the application process and requirements for this Notice of Funding Opportunity, and answer applicants’ questions. PRM will not be recording this session, but will post a Questions and Answers document on grants.gov following the session, and is also available to answer questions and provide guidance during the application process.
