BILLING CODE 4165–15–P 

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND 

HUMAN SERVICES 

Administration for Children and 

Families 

Office of Refugee Resettlement; Grant 

to Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society 

AGENCY: Office of Refugee Resettlement, 

Administration for Children and 

Families (ACF), Department of Health 

and Human Services (DHHS). 

ACTION: Award Announcement. 

CFDA#: The Catalog of Federal 

Domestic Assistance (CFDA) number for 

this program is 93.576. The title is the 

Refugee Family Enrichment Program. 

Amount of Award: $200,000. 

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that a 

noncompetitive single source program 

expansion supplement to an ongoing 

competitive award is being made to the 

Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS) 

to provide additional training and 

technical assistance to organizations 

implementing Refugee Marriage 

Enrichment projects. The application is 

not within the scope of any existing or 

expected to be issued program 

announcement for the Fiscal Year 2006. 

This application is expected to address 

issues critical to the development and 

implementation of marriage education 

programs for refugees by providing 

valuable on-site training and technical 

assistance to grantees and sub-grantees 

that offer marital communication 

training to refugee couples. 

In September of 2003, ORR awarded 

HIAS a grant of $200,000 to develop a 

Refugee Family Enrichment program 

which included technical assistance to 

subgrantees. Because of their success in 

the development of their marriage 

enrichment program, in 2004 HIAS was 

awarded a noncompetitive single source 

program expansion supplement to an 

ongoing competitive award to expand 

its Technical Assistance Services 

Program to Refugee Family Enrichment 

project sites specified by ORR. HIAS has 

since provided over 600 hours of 

technical assistance to project sites 

operated by organizations across the 

country. Their technical assistance 

primarily supports the work of small 

Mutual Assistance Associations, and 

without it, these agencies might struggle 

to provide refugee clients with the 

programming they need in order to 

achieve self sufficiency. The proposed 

project period is September 30, 2005—

September 29, 2006. 

Technical assistance to support 

grantees in developing better 

approaches to the delivery of services 

provided to refugees is authorized by 

section 412(c)(1)(A) of the Immigration 

and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 

1522(c)(1)). ACF received one nonsubstantive comment from a private 

citizen which did not impact this grant 

project specifically.
