Grant Reviewers for School-Age Child Care Program
| |
The Office of Early Childhood and Out-of-School Learning is seeking your assistance to identify grant reviewers for the School-Age Child Care (SACC) program. The SACC grant program helps to increase the availability and affordability of high quality school-age child care. It is a competitive grant, where applications are reviewed by an outside panel of experts to ensure objectivity.
We are asking partners who have experience in out-of-school (OST) time and youth development programs. We are expecting to receive approximately 50 applications, and each application will be scored by at least 2 reviewers. Therefore, we are hoping to secure 10 volunteers to minimize the amount of applications to be scored.
Please let Amanda Lopez know if you have any recommendations for grant reviewers, and she will follow-up with them with additional details.
