Reintegration of Ex-Offenders - Adult Program Grants: The Employment and Training Administration ("ETA"), U.S. Department of Labor ("Department"), announces the availability of $11.7 million dollars to serve adult ex-offenders returning to their communities. The Department expects to award approximately 10 grants of approximately $1,170,000 each for a 27-month period of performance. Grants will be awarded to faith-based and community organizations (FBCOs) to provide pre-release and post-release services to ex-offenders returning to high-poverty, high-crime communities. These services will include job training and employment preparation, mentoring, and assistance connecting to supportive services such as housing, substance abuse programs, and mental health treatment. Specifically, the employment component of the grant will focus on the development of employment opportunities in in-demand occupations, including emerging "green" jobs. Applicants must describe their community's need for reentry services and the degree to which reentry is an issue; describe their program's design to provide services to adult ex-offenders that will result in employment in in-demand industries, including "green" jobs; and provide evidence of partnerships with the criminal justice system, local Workforce Investment Boards and One-Stop Career Centers, the local public housing authority and other providers of housing services, and mental health and substance abuse treatment service providers.
