Opportunity Summary:

The Susan Harwood Training Grant Program, FY 2010 (Targeted Topic) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) focused on safety and health education. OSHA set aside an estimated total of about $2.75 million to support projects that either develop high-quality occupational safety and health training materials, deliver training, or do both. The training is meant for workers and/or employers and must be delivered across multiple worksites, with project content addressing one or more of the specific hazards OSHA selected for this solicitation. OSHA identified 30 eligible occupational safety and health hazard topics for this funding round, and applicants were required to choose from that list as published in the solicitation available on Grants.gov. OSHA indicated it could fund grants covering some or all of the listed topics depending on agency priorities and the strength of applications.

Awards under this competition were structured as Targeted Topic training grants with a 12-month performance period. Applicants could request up to $250,000 total for that 12-month project period. The notice anticipated making approximately 20 awards, though the actual number could vary based on final funding decisions and application quality. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds to be eligible or competitive under the basic terms described in the notice.

Eligibility was limited primarily to nonprofit organizations, including qualifying labor unions and community-based or faith-based organizations, as long as the organization was not an agency of a state or local government. In addition, state or locally supported institutions of higher education were eligible to apply under the federal assistance rules referenced at 29 CFR part 95. Eligible organizations were allowed to apply on their own or in partnership with other eligible organizations, but if applying as a partnership, the application needed to clearly identify a lead organization. The program did not allow sub-grants, which means recipients could not pass federal funds through to other entities as subrecipients. Subcontracting was allowed if needed, but any procurement had to follow the applicable federal standards (including the competition requirements referenced in 29 CFR 95.40 through 95.48 and relevant OMB circular guidance) to ensure full and open competition to the maximum extent practicable.

The notice also included an important restriction related to lobbying: a 501(c)(4) nonprofit organization that engages in lobbying activities was not eligible to receive federal funds through an award, grant, or loan under this program, referencing 1 U.S.C. 1611. For applicants other than state or locally supported institutions of higher education, OSHA required documentation of nonprofit status from the Internal Revenue Service as part of the application process.
