Opportunity Summary:
The Job Opportunity for Low Income Individuals Projects (JOLI) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2011-ACF-OCS-EO-0163, CFDA 93.593) was a discretionary grant program administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families (ACF). It fell under the Income Security and Social Services activity category and was designed to support projects intended to create or expand job opportunities for individuals with low incomes. Although the opportunity materials were posted on June 3, 2011, the record later includes a clear notice that no funds were appropriated for the JOLI program in Fiscal Year 2012, and as a result ACF stated it would not hold a competition for new JOLI grant awards that year. In practice, that notice means that even though a formal funding opportunity announcement existed, the program was not moving forward with new awards for FY 2012 due to lack of appropriated funding.
The announcement anticipated an estimated total funding amount of $1,160,000 and projected about 4 awards, with an award ceiling of $290,000 per grant and a stated award floor of $0. The funding instrument type was a grant, and there was no cost sharing or matching requirement indicated, meaning applicants were not required to provide matching funds as a condition of eligibility (though individual project budgets and any leveraging of other resources would typically still matter in competitive programs).
Eligibility was limited primarily to nonprofit organizations with IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) status, and the eligibility information also referenced 501(c)(4) organizations, provided they were not institutions of higher education. The announcement explicitly included faith-based and community organizations as eligible as long as they met the stated requirements. At the same time, several categories were clearly excluded from eligibility: individuals, foreign entities, and sole proprietorship organizations were not allowed to compete for or receive awards under this announcement.
Key dates in the record include a posted date of June 3, 2011 and an original closing date of August 3, 2011, along with repeated submission guidance stating that electronic applications submitted through Grants.gov had to be received no later than 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The entry also shows an archive date and creation date of February 7, 2012, which aligns with the later notice and suggests the opportunity was effectively closed out in the public listings. For applicants or interested parties who could not access the full announcement online, the contact provided was the ACF Applications Help Desk (appsupport@acf.hhs.gov). The full announcement was referenced via an ACF grants webpage link associated with the opportunity number.
