About this opportunity
This federal grant opportunity from the Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration (ETA) provides guidance and application information for the National Dislocated Worker Grant (DWG) program. The program offers supplemental, time-limited funding to assist workers impacted by significant economic dislocations, major disasters, or other qualifying employment disruptions. The application process requires detailed information on the qualifying event, projected participant enrollment, employment and training activities, community needs assessments, and implementation timelines. Applicants must demonstrate compliance with WIOA regulations, ETA guidance in TEGL 09-24, and federal grant requirements under 2 CFR parts 200 and 2900.
The DWG program provides flexible funding to temporarily expand workforce development capacity beyond standard formula-funded programs. Awards typically range from $800,000 to $7,000,000 and cover 36-month periods of performance, with possible 12-month extensions. The grants support comprehensive employment and training services, including career counseling, skills training, job placement assistance, and supportive services, with a focus on serving historically marginalized populations and preparing workers for high-demand, emerging industries.
