PSP Addendum 2 - Eastern Oregon Community Based Service Hub .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. The addendum modifies the schedule of key events, including delaying the issuance of the notice of award from June 25th to July 12th. The RFA seeks applications from new and existing eligible PSP providers to obtain or increase their allocation of PSP slots in the Eastern Oregon Community Based Services Hub region for the 2024-2025 program year. The application deadline is June 17, 2024, and awards are anticipated to be announced on or around July 12, 2024, with an initial one-year grant term and renewal options.

The RFA indicates that 16 PSP slots are available for reallocation, and successful applicants will be placed on a waitlist, with slots awarded as they become available during the program year at the agency's discretion. The base award per slot is $15,650 per year, with additional funding available for transportation and one-time new slot costs. The program is open to certified child care centers, certified family child care providers, early learning hubs, and other child care providers, with no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond.
