Highlights from CCUSA

New AmeriCorps funding opportunities webinar & request for proposals

CCUSA is taking applications to potentially launch two national AmeriCorps programs: 1) Financial Education Program, AND 2) English Language Learning Program. Join this webinar to learn more about AmeriCorps and how these new programs could help expand your existing programming through the power of national service. We will review sub-grantee expectations, estimated costs, and allowable activities in this webinar. Here is a bit more about each potential grant program:

• Financial Education Program. Goal: Increasing economic opportunities for beneficiaries by providing financial education/coaching to improve knowledge and wellbeing. Population: All populations eligible.  
• English Language Learning Program. Goal: Increasing economic opportunities for beneficiaries by providing ESL classes to prepare them for the workforce. Population: Non-native English speakers.

The specific interventions and curriculum to be used in both program is still being determined through consultation with member agencies and will be discussed in the webinar. If you want to receive the application prior to the webinar, please feel free to email [email protected] to request it. Applications for both grants programs will be due on November 22, 2019 for a program start date in Fall 2020. October 29, 2019 – 3:00 to 4:00 PM EST; Register here.
