About this program
The Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) awards Project Grants under AmeriCorps VISTA Training & Logistics Support (CFDA 94.023) to fund training and technical assistance for AmeriCorps VISTA members and supervisory staff at community-based organizations and agencies, with the most recent grant award dated July 26, 2013.
This program has not disbursed grant awards in over thirteen years. The portfolio reflects a single award of $13.7 million obligated to AFYA (Project Grant 13VTHMD001, completed March 31, 2016) for planning and delivering more than 600 trainings including program-specific officer, sponsor, and leadership trainings, as well as national conferences supporting VISTA members and supervisory development. No recent grant opportunities are currently posted.
The program operates as a Cooperative Agreement mechanism under CNCS administration, though the single tracked award appears in the portfolio as a Project Grant. Funding awards cover two-year periods in one-year increments, with CNCS assessing proposals on quality of design and strategy, organizational capacity, and cost-effectiveness. Renewals are subject to performance, continuing need, and fund availability. The program does not offer a formal appeals process. All records must be maintained per cooperative agreement terms and applicable law.
Given the thirteen-year gap since the last award and absence of posted opportunities, this program shows no current activity suitable for pursuit. Organizations interested in AmeriCorps VISTA training and logistics support should contact CNCS directly to confirm whether solicitations are planned and to clarify current application procedures.
