Eastern Oregon Community Based Services Hub - Addendum 1 - PSP.pdf

This document is an Addendum to a Request for Application (RFA) issued by the State of Oregon Department of Early Learning and Care (DELC) for the Preschool Promise (PSP) program in the Eastern Oregon Community Based Services Hub region. The Addendum modifies the original RFA to clarify the automobile liability insurance requirements for center-based and school-based non-transporting PSP providers, specifying a minimum $1,000,000 combined single limit coverage for bodily injury and property damage. The RFA seeks applications from new and existing eligible PSP providers to obtain or increase their current allocation of PSP spaces for the 2024-2025 program year, with 16 slots available for reallocation. The application deadline is June 17, 2024, and awards are anticipated to be announced on or around June 25, 2024, with an initial one-year grant term and renewal options.

The base award per PSP slot is $15,650 per year, with additional funding available for transportation and one-time new slot costs. The RFA does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond, which are open to certified child care centers, certified family child care providers, early learning hubs, and other child care providers. Successful applicants will be placed on a waitlist, with slots awarded as they become available during the program year at the agency's discretion.
