SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 29, 2022, we published the NIA for
the FY 2022 Promise Neighborhoods competition in the Federal Register
(87 FR 38719). On July 25, 2022, we published an extension notice in
the Federal Register (87 FR 44107) because <a href="http://Grants.gov">Grants.gov</a>, the system used
to submit applications electronically, was closed for site maintenance
from September 23-29, 2022. We are reopening this competition for
affected applicants described below to allow them more time--until
October 21, 2022--to prepare and submit their applications.
Eligibility: The reopening of this competition applies to eligible
applicants under the Promise Neighborhoods program that are affected
applicants. An eligible applicant for this competition is defined in
the NIA. To qualify as an affected applicant, the applicant must have a
mailing address that is located in a jurisdiction that is part of one
of the applicable federally declared disaster areas and must provide
appropriate supporting documentation, if requested.
The affected areas are those in which assistance to individuals or
public assistance has been authorized under the following FEMA
declarations:
<bullet> Puerto Rico (<a href="https://www.fema.gov/disaster/4671">https://www.fema.gov/disaster/4671</a>);

disaster declaration (<a href="https://www.fema.gov/disaster/4672">https://www.fema.gov/disaster/4672</a>);

Affected applicants that have already timely submitted applications
under the FY 2022 Promise Neighborhood competition may submit a new
application on or before the new application deadline of October 21,
2022, but they are not required to do so. If a new application is not
submitted, the Department will use the application that was submitted
by the original (or first extended) deadline. If a new application is
submitted, the Department will consider the application that is last
submitted and timely received by 11:59:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on
October 21, 2022. Any application submitted by an affected applicant
under the new deadline must contain evidence (e.g., the applicant
organization mailing address) that the applicant is located in one of
the applicable federally declared disaster areas and, if requested,
must provide appropriate supporting documentation.
We are not reopening the application period for all applicants.
Applications from applicants that are not affected, as defined above,
will not be accepted past the October 7, 2022, deadline.
