NONTRADITIONAL OCCUPATIONS (WANTO) TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE GRANT PROGRAM

Funding Opportunity Number: FOA-WB-23-00

Action: Amendment to FOA-WB-23-00

Summary: The Women’s Bureau announced on April 14, 2023, the availability of funds and the Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) for WANTO grants to be awarded through a competitive process.

The eligibility section has been clarified, removing one sentence.

The document is hereby amended as follows:

The following organizations are eligible to apply:

12 (Nonprofits having a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education)

Additional Information on Eligibility:

Eligible Entities:

Only CBOs as defined in Appendix B are eligible to apply for these grants. A consortium of CBOs may apply as a single applicant; in such instances, the applicant should provide a copy of the consortium agreement that specifies which entity will administer the grant.

Current and Former Grantees:

Recipients of WANTO Act grant program funds awarded under the FY 2022 FOA are NOT eligible to apply for a FY 2023 WANTO grant. FY 2022 grantees will be eligible to apply again in FY 2024. Recipients of funds awarded under previous WANTO Act grant programs outside of those who were awarded funds under the FY 2022 FOA are eligible to apply for this funding opportunity. Although scaling a previous WANTO funded program is acceptable, former WANTO Act grantees must explain, in their “Statement of Need” (see Section IV.B.3), how their proposed TA activities are materially different and improved from those already performed using funds awarded through a previous WANTO Act grant program. All past and current WANTO grantees after 2006 are listed in Appendix A for reference.
