SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Funding Opportunity Title: Veterans 

Legacy Grant Program. 

Announcement Type: Initial. 

Funding Opportunity Number: VA– 

NCA–VLGP–FY2022. 

Assistance Listing: 64.204, VA 

Veterans Legacy Grant Program. 

I. Funding Opportunity Description 

A. Purpose: Funding for VLGP grants 

under this NOFA is authorized by 38 

U.S.C. 2400 note. This NOFA 

announces the availability of funding to 

applicants found eligible to receive a 

VLGP grant to tell stories focused on 

underrepresented Veterans or Service 

members, to include, but not limited to, 

Veterans or Service members 

underrepresented by race, ethnicity, or 

identity, as well as Veterans or Service 

members from our LGBTQ+ 

communities, from any period of 

American history, so they are honored 

in perpetuity. 

Funding is interdisciplinary and not 

restricted according to academic focus 

or specialization. Eligible applicants are 

institutions of higher learning, 

educational institutions, local 

educational agencies, State educational 

agencies, or non-profits. Successful 

applications will: 

1. Meet the mission of VLGP to 

commemorate our Nation’s Veterans 

and Service members through the 

discovery and sharing of their stories. 

VLGP encourages students and teachers 

at the K–12 levels and universities 

around the country to immerse 

themselves in the rich historical 

resources found within one or more of 

VA’s 155 national cemeteries or one or 

more of the 119 VA grant-funded State, 

Territorial, or Tribal Veterans 

cemeteries. 

2. Include a study of Veterans or 

Service members interred in one of VA’s 

national cemeteries or in one of the VA 

grant-funded State, Territorial, or Tribal 

cemeteries. 

3. Foster engagement in the 

communities surrounding one or several 

of these cemeteries. 

4. Tell the stories of those interred in 

these cemeteries with a focus on 

underrepresented Veterans or Service 

members, to include, but not limited to, 

Veterans or Service members 

underrepresented by race, ethnicity, or 

identity as well as Veterans or Service 

members from our LGBTQ+ community, 

from any period of American history. 

B. Priorities: Competitive Preference 

Priorities (CPP) for fiscal year (FY) 2022 

and any subsequent year in which we 

make awards from the list of 

applications from this annual 

competition, VA will prioritize 

applications that align with specific 

VLGP initiatives, which will be noted as 

CPPs. We will award up to an additional 

three points to an application if the 

application meets one or more of the 

following CPPs, described in a one-page 

abstract submitted with the application 

and listed on the VLGP Profile Form: 

1. Successfully showcasing Veterans 

or Service members interred in these 

cemeteries with a focus on 

underrepresented Veterans or Service 

members, to include, but not limited to, 

Veterans or Service members 

underrepresented by race, ethnicity, 

identity, as well as Veterans or Service 

members from our LGBTQ+ community, 

from any period of American history. 

2. Creatively highlighting interred 

Veterans and Service members who 

have never been studied or researched 

in previous VLGP project proposals. 

3. Maximizing the use of best 

practices in digital scholarship, 

pedagogy, scholarly communication and 

digital public engagement. 

New CPPs will be outlined in each 

NOFA each FY it is announced. 

Note: If applicants wish to be 

considered for CPP points, applicants 

must include, in a one-page abstract 

submitted with the application, a 

statement indicating which, if any, of 

the CPPs are addressed. If an applicant 

addresses CPPs, this information must 

also be listed on the VLGP Profile Form. 

C. Total Available Funds: The total 

funds allocated for VLGP in FY 2022 is 

$2.2 million. 

Under Public Law 116–107 1(a)(4), 

each grant may not exceed $500,000 in 

total costs for the entire grant period of 

one FY. If more than one application per 

applicant’s employer identification 

number is received by the due date and 

time, VA will consider only one 

application. VA reserves the right to 

select which application to consider 

based on the submission dates and 

times or based on other factors included 

in 38 CFR 38.710–38.785. 

D. Eligible Recipients: Applicants 

must be an eligible entity that meets one 

of the definitions in 38 CFR 38.715 for 

an institution of higher learning, 

educational institution, local 

educational agency, State educational 

agency, or a non-profit. 

II. Award Information 

A. Allocation of funds: A total of up 

to $2.2 million in Federal funding is 

available under this NOFA with a 

maximum award of $500,000 per grant.

1 year, beginning on October 17, 2022, 

and dependent upon factors such as 

funding availability, the recipient 

meeting the performance goals 

established in the grant agreement and 

statutory and regulatory requirements. 

The number of grants awarded during 

this period is at the discretion of VA. 

B. Funding Restrictions: No part of an 

award under this NOFA may be used for 

a course buyout, and the grant funds 

shall not be used to substitute a class 

that a professor is required to teach 

during an academic year. 

C. Funding Limitations: VA’s 

decisions will be based on factors such 

as need, geographic dispersion and

with projects similar in scope as defined 

by the NOFA, to include descriptions of 

the engagement model, examples of 

successful leadership and management 

of a project of similar (or greater) scale 

and budget, or related work in this field. 

4. Proposed Budget: In 500 words or 

less, double-spaced, 12-point Times 

New Roman font, the proposed budget 

should identify all costs and proposed 

expenditures, to include additional 

compensation and honoraria (and to 

whom); equipment costs; production

5. Project Team: If applicable, the 

applicant must provide a narrative 

description of anticipated project team 

and any extramural partner(s), including 

the responsibilities of the principal 

investigator, the co-principal 

investigators and any extramural partner 

entity. 

B. Eligibility: Applicants must meet 

definitions for eligible recipients in 38 

CFR 38.715(c) and provide supporting 

documentation of status (for example, 

Section 503(c)(3) status, consolidated 

State plan). 

C. Project Proposals: Project Proposals 

should support the memorialization of 

the Nation’s Service members’ and 

Veterans’ legacy enshrined in national 

cemeteries or VA grant-funded 

cemeteries in the following areas: 

1. Outreach: A framework for digital 

and non-digital outreach based on 

student research focused on a VA 

national cemetery (or cemeteries) or VA 

grant-funded State, Territorial or Tribal 

cemetery (or cemeteries). 

2. Educational Materials: A 

framework of digital instructional 

materials relevant to the grade level of 

K–12 students involved (e.g., lesson 

plans, learning guides). Alternatively, 

materials intended for general education 

of the public may be developed in 

conjunction with the above or in lieu of 

it, but preference will be given to 

proposals that include development of 

instructional materials intended for K– 

12 audiences. 

3. Extended Memorialization: A way 

to present the students’ research in a 

way that is appropriate to their 

discipline and accessible to the public 

(such as a website or other medium). 

Materials produced under this grant 

program must be based on research on 

the Service members and/or Veterans 

interred or memorialized in VA’s 

national cemeteries or VA grant-funded 

cemeteries, conducted by students 

under the guidance of an appropriate 

educational professional (e.g., licensed 

teacher, tenure-track professor with 

terminal degree, or program officer of an 

educational non-profit entity). The 

research must be produced into formats 

accessible to students, teachers, scholars 

and the American public. This research 

may be conducted within the context of 

any established academic discipline or 

may be interdisciplinary as long as the 

research conveys findings about 

individual Service members or Veterans 

that are otherwise not available or are 

currently unknown. NCA’s VLGP is 

committed to memorializing all Service 

members and Veterans, but Service 

members and Veterans from 

underrepresented communities are of 

particular interest. No preference will be 

given to any disciplinary or 

methodological approach. Intrinsic to 

the research process under this grant 

program is students visiting a national 

cemetery or VA grant-funded cemetery 

of interest more than once. 

D. Applicant Contact Information: 

Must not be a toll-free number or P.O. 

Box address. Must be a working number 

and physical address for grantee 

accessibility. 

1. Location of the administrative 

office where correspondence can be sent 

to the Executive Director/President/ 

Chief Executive Officer/Department 

Chair (no P.O. Boxes). Include complete 

address, city, state, zip code + four-digit 

extension, county and congressional 

district. 

2. Organization Primary Contact: 

Include the name, title, phone and email 

address. Note: VLGP views the 

organization’s primary contact as 

assigned to the organization, not a 

specific grant application, and should 

be someone who normally signs grant 

agreements or makes executive 

decisions for the organization. 

3. Grant Contact #1: Include the name, 

title, phone and email address.

Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 117 / Friday, June 17, 2022 / Notices 36589 

Note: This contact is specific to a 

grant application under this NOFA and 

may be a Program Manager, Director, 

Case Manager, Grant Administrator, or 

other individual of similar position. 

V. Application Review Information 

A. Application Review: Staff 

reviewers from VA and possibly other 

Federal agencies will assess and score 

all compliant applications. The 

applications will be ranked from highest 

to lowest based on application scores as 

explained below. 

B. Applicant Clarification: Following 

the review process, VA may request 

clarifying information to inform funding 

recommendations. A request for 

clarification does not guarantee a grant 

award. If an organization does not 

respond by the deadline to a request for 

clarification, VA will remove its 

application from consideration. 

C. Application Scoring: Applications 

will be evaluated and scored based on 

the follow criteria (100-point scale): 

1. Team—10 possible points. 

2. Student research products—15 

possible points. 

3. Outreach—15 possible points. 

4. Instructional materials—15 possible 

points. 

5. Extended memorialization—15 

possible points. 

6. Budget—15 possible points. 

7. Collection of program assessment 

data—15 possible points. 

In addition to the possible 100-point 

scale, applications can receive up to an 

additional three points for CPPs as 

noted in Section I.B. 

D. Technical Factors: Applications 

will be reviewed and evaluated based 

on the following technical factors to 

determine the best value for NCA and 

VLGP: 

1. Team: The team of contributing 

scholars must consist of at least two 

members from accredited institutions of 

higher education within the area of 

focus, each of whom is a faculty 

member who holds an advanced degree 

in their field and has evidence of 

demonstrated scholarly output. The 

team will designate a single Point of 

Contact. 

2. Student research products: 

Applicants shall define a framework of 

at least two digital media products 

produced for educational outreach 

based on student-generated research. 

The final products must be publicly 

accessible examples of applied cemetery 

research. 

3. Outreach: Applicants shall define 

how they plan to develop a framework 

for digital and non-digital outreach 

focused on a VA national cemetery (or 

cemeteries) or VA grant-funded State, 

Territorial or Tribal cemetery (or 

cemeteries). 

4. Instructional materials: Applicants 

shall include the development of at least 

five lesson plans appropriate to the 

schools, grades and subjects of teachers 

and K–12 students in the partnership. 

‘‘Lesson plan’’ includes a plan of 

instruction that reflects the state’s K–12 

curriculum standards, e.g., Common 

Core State Standards, and includes all 

other resources, materials and aids 

required for the school-based 

implementation of the lesson. The 

lesson plan product can be multiple 

lessons, structured around pre- and 

post-visit learning. 

5. Extended memorialization: 

Applicants shall define how they plan 

to use the student research to extend 

memorialization of the Service 

members’ or Veterans’ legacy enshrined 

in a national cemetery or VA grantfunded cemetery of focus. 

6. Collection of program assessment 

data: Applicants shall design 

assessment instruments for their 

students and the K–12 students showing 

how this participation in this program 

affected students’ performance in their 

subject of inquiry, e.g., history, film, 

education, American social studies, 

English Language Arts, art. Data should 

be anonymously sampled but 

demonstrated to be valid and reliable. 

E. Risk Assessment Evaluation: In 

addition to the application scoring of 

technical factors, VA staff (and possibly 

other Federal agency staff) will evaluate 

the risks to the program posed by each 

applicant, including conducting due 

diligence to ensure an applicant’s ability 

to manage Federal funds. This 

evaluation is in addition to the 

evaluation of the applicant’s quality of 

its application, and results from this 

evaluation will inform funding 

decisions. If VA determines to make an 

award, special conditions that 

correspond to the degree of risk assessed 

may be applied to the award. In 

evaluating risks, VA may review and 

consider the following: 

• Financial stability; 

• Quality of management systems and 

ability to meet the management 

standards prescribed in the uniform in 

2 CFR part 200; 

• Applicant’s record in managing 

previous Federal awards, grants, or 

procurement awards, including: 

Æ Timeliness of compliance with 

applicable reporting requirements; 

Æ Accuracy of data reported; 

Æ Validity of performance measure 

data reported; 

Æ Conformance to the terms and 

conditions of previous Federal awards; 

and 

Æ If applicable, the extent to which 

any previously awarded amounts will 

be expended prior to future awards. 

• Information available through 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB)-designated repositories of 

Governmentwide eligibility 

qualification or financial integrity 

information, such as: 

Æ Federal Awardee Performance and 

Integrity Information System; 

Æ Dun and Bradstreet; and 

Æ ‘‘Do Not Pay.’’ 

Applicants may review and comment 

on information available through these 

OMB-designated repositories, and VA 

will consider any comments made by 

the applicant. 

• Reports and findings from single 

audits performed under Subpart F— 

Audit Requirements, 2 CFR part 200, 

OMB Circular A–133 and findings of 

any other available audits; 

• Applicant organization’s annual 

report; 

• Publicly available information, 

including information from the 

applicant organization’s website; 

• Applicant’s ability to effectively 

implement statutory, regulatory, or 

other requirements imposed on award 

recipients; and 

• Applicant’s past compliance or 

ability to comply with Federal 

procurement requirements in procuring 

the Project Coordinator and Investor(s) 

in accordance with 2 CFR 200.317– 

200.326. 

F. Priority Groups: This award cycle 

places no priority consideration on 

grant applications with any specific 

focus, discipline, or product. Applicants 

can create a proposal that meets the 

priority and preference of the VLGP as 

outlined in this NOFA and 38 CFR 

38.710–38.785. 

G. Disposition of Applications: Upon 

review of an application and dependent 

on availability of funds, VA will: 

• Approve the application for 

funding, in whole or in part, for such 

amount of funds, and subject to such 

conditions that VA deems necessary or 

desirable; or, 

• Determine that the application is of 

acceptable quality for funding, in that it 

meets minimum criteria, but disapprove 

the application for funding because it 

did not rank sufficiently high in relation 

to other applications to qualify for an 

award based on the level of funding 

available; or, 

• Disapprove the application for 

failure to meet the applicable selection 

criteria at a sufficiently high level in 

comparison to other applications to 

justify an award of funds, or for another 

reason as provided in the 

documentation of the decision; or 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
36590 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 117 / Friday, June 17, 2022 / Notices 

• Defer action on the application for 

such reasons as lack of funds or a need 

for further review. 

H. Withdrawal of Application: 

Applicants may withdraw a VLGP 

application submitted through 

Grants.gov by writing the VA point of 

contact specified in this NOFA within 

15 days to request withdrawal with a 

rationale for the request. 

VI. Award Administration Information 

A. Selection for Funding: VA will 

utilize the ranked scores of applications 

as the primary basis for selection, 

ultimately made by the delegated 

official who may factor in the risk 

assessment and clarifying information 

provided by the applicant. 

B. Award Notice: Although subject to 

change, the VLGP Office expects to 

announce grant awards in the 4th 

quarter of FY 2022. Awards will be for 

12 months. The initial announcement 

will be made via news release which 

will be posted on VA’s VLGP website at: 

https://www.cem.va.gov/legacy/ 

grants.asp. Following the initial 

announcement and after the application 

deadline, the VLGP Office will send 

notification letters to the grant 

recipients. Applicants who are not 

selected will be sent a declination letter. 

C. Grant Agreements: After an 

applicant is approved for award, VA 

will draft a grant agreement to be 

executed by VA and the grantee. Upon 

execution of the grant agreement, VA 

will obligate the grant amount. Grantees 

will be subject to requirements of this 

NOFA, the VLGP regulations (38 CFR 

38.710–38.785), other Federal grant 

requirements under 2 CFR part 200 and 

the grantee’s VLGP application. A full 

copy of the regulations governing the 

VLGP is available at the VLGP website 

at: https://www.cem.va.gov/legacy/ 

grants.asp. 

D. Administrative and National 

Policy: VA places great emphasis on 

responsibility and accountability. VA 

has procedures in place to monitor grant 

programs and outcomes associated with 

the services provided under the VLGP. 

E. Payment: Grant awards will be paid 

in a method that is in accordance with 

VA and other Federal fiscal 

requirements. Funds will be disbursed 

on initial obligation and halfway 

through the grant period (i.e., for 1st 6 

months and then for the 2nd 6 months). 

Awardees will be required to support 

their request for funding based on the 

project budget. 

F. Reporting: 1. Annual report: All 

grantees must submit to VA, not later 

than 60 days after the last day of the 

grant period, a final report. The final 

report must include: a program 

evaluation, proof of meeting VA 

objectives as outlined in the mission of 

the VLGP and a summary of the 

effectiveness of the completed proposal. 

The grantee must be open to a possible 

site visit and external evaluation to be 

considered for future funding. 

2. Additional reporting: VA may 

request additional information, records 

and reports to allow VA to assess 

program effectiveness. 

G. Recovery of funds: VA may recover 

from the grantee any funds that are not 

used in accordance with the grant 

agreement. If VA decides to recover 

funds, VA will issue to the grantee a 

notice of intent to recover grant funds, 

and the grantee will then have 30 days 

to submit documentation demonstrating 

why the grant funds should not be 

recovered. After review of all submitted 

documentation, VA will determine 

whether action will be taken to recover 

the grant funds. When VA decides to 

recover grant funds from the grantee, 

VA will stop further payments of grant 

funds until the grant funds are 

recovered and the condition that led to 

the decision to recover grant funds has 

been resolved. 

H. Financial Management: The 

grantee shall conform to the Single 

Audit Act Amendments of 1996, as 

implemented by 2 CFR part 200. All 

grantees must use a financial 

management system that complies with 

2 CFR part 200. Grantees must meet the 

applicable requirements of OMB’s 

regulations on Cost Principles at 2 CFR 

part 200. 

I. Availability of Grant Funds: Federal 

financial assistance will become 

available subsequent to the effective 

date of the grant as set forth in the grant 

agreement. Recipients may be 

reimbursed for costs resulting from 

obligations incurred before the effective 

date of the grant, if such costs are 

authorized by VA within this NOFA or 

the grant agreement or subsequently by 

VA in writing and otherwise would be 

allowable as costs of the grant under 

applicable guidelines, regulations and 

terms and conditions of the grant 

agreement.
