The Department of Defense, through the Federal Voting Assistance Program (FVAP), is seeking grant proposals that will improve the voting experience and reduce impediments for Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA) voters. The key objectives are to establish sustainable and affordable electronic tools to enhance voting systems for UOCAVA voters, increase the percentage of successfully returned ballots, and reduce failure rates in the absentee voting process. Proposals will be evaluated based on factors such as significance, sustainability, impact, strategic approach, innovation, scalability, collaboration, and cost-benefit analysis. Proposals are due by April 30, 2024.
The total funding available for all awards is $5,321,655.50, and multiple awards may be made under the CFDA 12.219 - EASE 3.0 grant program. The grants cannot be used for the electronic return of completed ballots to election offices.
