Purpose of Program: Promoting the Readiness of Minors in Supplemental Security Income (PROMISE) is a joint initiative of the U.S. Department of Education (ED), the U.S. Social Security Administration (SSA), the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), and the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL). Under PROMISE, ED will fund States to develop and implement model demonstration projects (MDPs) that promote positive outcomes for children who receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and their families. Specifically, PROMISE is intended to improve the provision and coordination of services and supports for child SSI recipients and their families to enable them to achieve improved outcomes. These outcomes include graduating from high school ready for college and a career, completing postsecondary education and job training, and obtaining competitive employment in an integrated setting and, as a result, achieving long-term reductions in the child recipients' reliance on SSI. Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) Number: 84.418P.

Additional Information on Eligibility
1. Eligible Applicants: Eligible applicants are the 50 States and the District of Columbia. A consortium of States may also apply. A grantee, subgrantee, or partner under this program is not eligible to receive funding for the SSA national evaluation contract. An applicant must meet the following requirements to be eligible to compete for funding under this program: (a) Single State applicant. A single State with adequate child SSI recipients, as described in paragraph (d) of this section, may apply. The State applicant must: (1) Designate a lead coordinating entity, which must be a State agency; and (2) Submit an application that has been signed by the State's Governor and the administrative head of the State's lead coordinating entity. (b) Consortium of States applicant. A consortium of States may apply in order to meet the minimum sample size eligibility requirement, as described in paragraph (d) of this section. (1) One of the States participating in the consortium must submit an application on behalf of the consortium; (2) Each of the consortium States must designate a lead coordinating entity, which must be a State agency; (3) The application must be signed by the Governor of each State and the administrative head of each State's lead coordinating entity; (4) The applicant on behalf of the consortium is the grantee and is legally responsible for the use of all grant funds and ensuring that the project is carried out by the consortium in accordance with Federal requirements; (5) Each member of the consortium is legally responsible to carry out the activities it agrees to perform (EDGAR, 34 CFR 75.129); and (6) Each State participating in the consortium must have partnerships with at least three common agencies (or equivalent for administering common programs). (Described in Partnerships under paragraph (a) of the Project Activities section of this notice.) (7) Each State participating in the consortium must provide the coordinated set of required and other services and supports as proposed in the application (described in paragraph (b) of the Application Requirements section of this notice.) This set of coordinated services and supports must be the same across all States in the consortium. (c) Lead coordinating entity. The lead coordinating entity must partner with other State agencies and is encouraged to partner with local agencies and organizations that play or have the potential to play a substantial role in the development and implementation of policies and practices affecting child SSI recipients and their families (see Partnerships under the Project Activities section of this notice and the related application requirements). (d) Minimum sample size. The State or consortium of States must have a sufficient number of children between the ages of 14 and 16 who receive SSI to, within two years of the start of the project, recruit the minimum sample size of 2,000 child SSI recipients into the MDP and begin providing MDP interventions to half of those recruited. This sample size is necessary to assess the effectiveness of each MDP. If the MDP chooses to exceed the minimum sample size, half of the child SSI recipients must still be assigned to the treatment group and half to the control group. Each MDP will be evaluated separately because ED and its Federal PROMISE partners expect grantees to vary in their approaches to implementing PROMISE (see the Evaluation and Project Assessment Activities section of this notice).
