About this opportunity
The Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration is seeking applications for the Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP) Program Year 2025 grants, targeting workforce development services for low-income unemployed individuals aged 55 and older. The grant opportunity requires applicants to submit electronically signed SF-424 forms, budget information, project narratives, and programmatic assurances through Grants.gov by August 4, 2025, at 1:59 PM EST. Key requirements include detailing minority participation efforts, organizational structure, community service assignments, and individual employment plans for participants. Grantees must adhere to administrative cost limitations of 13.5% of the grant award and allocate at least 75% of federal funds to participant wages and benefits. Evaluation criteria will focus on the applicant's ability to create part-time community service employment opportunities that help participants gain work experience, develop skills, and transition into unsubsidized employment.
The total funding available for this grant opportunity is $85,869,039, with grants typically ranging from $1 million to $48 million. The performance period will cover a 12-month program year from July 1 to June 30, with a focus on providing job training, supportive services, and temporary work assignments at non-profit and public agencies. Grants will be distributed to state agencies, territorial governments, and national non-profit organizations across the United States, with the primary goal of promoting economic self-sufficiency for older workers. Successful applicants will be expected to implement comprehensive workforce services that include on-the-job training, individual employment planning, and supportive services for participants.
