Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2023 ACF ORR RB 0045
The Refugee Technical Assistance Program is a federal grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR). ORR plans to make one cooperative agreement award to continue operating a national, one-stop technical assistance (TA) hub for the refugee field. The idea is to have a centralized, coordinated source of training, tools, and specialized support that can respond quickly to needs across the country and fill technical assistance gaps where no other provider is available.
Under this opportunity, the selected recipient would deliver coordinated and innovative TA and training primarily to ORR-funded state refugee programs, ORR-funded refugee service providers, and ethnic and community-based organizations (ECBOs) that serve refugees. The hub is expected to function not just as a training vendor, but as an active connector and facilitator across systems. ORR emphasizes that the TA provider should build and maintain a network of subject-matter experts and promote cross-sector social innovation, using a mix of internal staff capacity and external expertise through consulting arrangements or subcontracts.
The overall purpose is to strengthen the capacity of refugee-serving organizations and partners so they can better address barriers to refugee self-sufficiency, health and wellness, and longer-term integration, while also advancing equity in how services are designed and delivered. The program is framed around a strengths-based approach, meaning the TA should reflect refugees unique challenges while also recognizing and leveraging refugees skills, talents, resilience, and the assets of resettlement communities. In addition to direct skills-building support, the hub is expected to help providers measure program effectiveness, improve how they communicate impact, and coordinate with community agencies as well as state and local government partners so that services for refugees are better aligned and easier to access.
A key feature of the award is that the TA hub must conduct regular field needs assessments to decide what technical assistance areas to prioritize over time. ORR lists potential focus areas that may be included depending on need, such as employment and economic self-sufficiency strategies, case management approaches, trauma-informed refugee health and mental health supports, child and family well-being and family preservation, naturalization and citizenship assistance, digital literacy, equity-focused service improvements, community consultation and engagement practices, private sponsorship, and program evaluation methods. In practice, this means the hub should be able to both deliver planned trainings and pivot to emerging issues, tailoring assistance to different types of organizations and communities.
From an administrative standpoint, this is a discretionary funding opportunity with a cooperative agreement structure (meaning ORR is likely to have substantial involvement in guiding priorities and monitoring performance compared to a more hands-off grant). The opportunity number is HHS-2023-ACF-ORR-RB-0045 and the CFDA (Assistance Listing) number is 93.576, within the income security and social services category. The anticipated award ceiling is $7,500,000, with one expected award. Eligibility is broad and includes various levels of government, public and private institutions of higher education, federally recognized tribal governments and tribal organizations, public housing authorities, and nonprofit organizations (including both 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3) nonprofits), along with other applicants as clarified in the full notice. The original application closing date listed is June 24, 2023, with electronic submissions due by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date.Apply for HHS 2023 ACF ORR RB 0045
