COVID-19 Response Program Phase 2
is now open

The Office of Community and Rural Affairs today announced that the second phase of the COVID-19 Response Program is now open.

Proposals are being accepted until 11:59 p.m. ET on Sunday, June 21, 2020. However, we encourage you to submit during normal business hours as there will be no technical support available past 4 p.m ET. Final applications are due by Sunday, July 19, with funding awards planned for the week of August 9.

Proposal submission will be collected via the new Electronic Grants?Management System (eGMS). A variety of resources are available to help prepare a proposal including:

  • The scoring process overview document;
  • A recorded webinar and a step-by-step guide that walks new users through eGMS;
  • A best practice document that includes a full-time equivalent (FTE) calculation sheet to assist with low-to-moderate income (LMI) eligibility determinations; and
  • A recording of the June 4 webinar and PowerPoint presentation.

All of these resources and information can be found at www.in.gov/ocra/3010.htm. If you have specific questions on this phase of the program, contact the Community Liaison for your region.
