Refugee Home-Based Childcare Microenterprise Development Project: The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) within the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is pleased to announce the availability of funds for Refugee Home-Based Child Care Microenterprise Development Projects. These projects are aimed at assisting primarily refugee women in becoming economically self sufficient by providing home-based child care services. Thus, recipients of grant awards through this announcement will teach refugee women about local, state, and federal child care laws, regulations and licensing requirements and about cultural norms concerning child care and child care development. Also, they will assist refugee women in English language acquisition, advance educational attainment (GED) and improve economic opportunities through application of acquired job skills in a market where there is a shortage of childcare providers. Through this grant, mentors will help primarily refugee women establish agreements or contracts with St ate or county child care offices so they may qualify for State/county childcare reimbursement as childcare service providers. Although the focus will be on refugee women, all services provided to refugee women under this project are available to refugee men who are able to benefit from these services.
