Draft Request for Applications for Title II Development Food Aid Programs: This Request for Applications (RFA) provides information on funding opportunities for multi-year, development food aid programs. Food security is the cornerstone of the Title II program because "...enhancing food security in the developing world through the use of agricultural commodities..." is a policy of the United States as stated in the Food for Peace Act, which authorizes Title II food aid. Thus, FFPs goal for multi-year, development programming is to reduce risks and vulnerabilities to food insecurity and increase food availability, access and utilization/consumption. Title II programs must target the vulnerability of food insecure individuals, households and communities directly. Note that assistance made available pursuant to this RFA may be used to meet emergency/exceptional circumstances as provided in accordance with the terms of those awards and 22 C.F. R. 211.5(o). FFP would greatly appreciate receiving consolidated comments on this draft RFA. A consolidated response from FFP to comments and inquiries concerning the draft materials will accompany the finalized materials. Typically, the comment period lasts 30 days from date materials are released; comments on the FY12 draft RFA are therefore due Friday, October 7, 2011. However, please do not wait until the last day to submit your consolidated comments and inquiries. As stated in the draft RFA, all comments and inquiries should be directed to Juli Majernik at [email protected] with a copy to [email protected].
