Opportunity Information: Apply for ETA TEGL 13 23
The Program Year (PY) 2024 Planning Instructions and Allotments for the Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP) is a U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training Administration (ETA) guidance package issued as Training and Employment Guidance Letter (TEGL) 13-23. It is directed to the current SCSEP state, territorial, and national grantees and is meant to do two practical things at once: lay out the PY 2024 funding amounts (allotments) and explain how grantees are expected to prepare and submit their PY 2024 grant application materials. The program focus remains employment, workforce services, and training for older workers through subsidized community service assignments, which is the core purpose of SCSEP under CFDA 17.235.
A key point in this TEGL is that PY 2024 is a competition year for the national SCSEP grants. Because of that, the guidance treats national grantees differently than state and territorial grantees for this cycle. For national grantees that are currently funded, the TEGL provides only a partial-year allotment covering the first four months of PY 2024. This partial funding approach is designed to maintain continuity of services and provide a managed transition window leading up to the effective date of awards made through the upcoming national competition. In other words, current national grantees receive enough funding to operate during the transition period rather than a full program-year award, since the longer-term national grants are expected to be decided through the competitive process.
The TEGL also connects the planning and application instructions in this notice to the separate competitive funding process described in the FOA titled Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP) National Grants Competition for Program Year 2024 (FOA-ETA-24-11). It includes transition-related information so current operators understand how the handoff is expected to work between existing grants and the new awards that will be issued under the competition. This is especially important for participant continuity, host agency relationships, and administrative closeout or transfer tasks that can arise when a competition results in changes to which organizations hold national grants.
From an administrative standpoint, this opportunity is categorized as discretionary grant funding under the employment, labor, and training activity area. The eligible applicant pool is listed broadly as "Others," but the narrative makes clear that the intended applicants are the current SCSEP state, territorial, and national grantees that need to submit PY 2024 materials in line with ETA instructions. The notice anticipates 76 awards, with an award ceiling listed as $16,497,270, signaling that award sizes can vary and that the ceiling reflects a maximum amount for an individual award rather than a typical grant size.
Timing details included in the source data show the TEGL was created on May 10, 2024, and lists an original closing date of June 9, 2024. Practically, that window functions as the planning and submission deadline for required PY 2024 grant documentation under the TEGL. For national grantees in particular, the instructions and partial-year funding are framed as a bridge to the competition timeline rather than a standard full-year continuation action.
In summary, TEGL 13-23 is less of a traditional open-ended grant solicitation and more of a formal set of allotments, submission instructions, and transition guidance for organizations already operating SCSEP grants. It tells current grantees how much funding is available for PY 2024, what they must submit to receive it, and how ETA plans to handle the transition for national grants during a year when those national awards will be re-competed under FOA-ETA-24-11.Apply for ETA TEGL 13 23
