SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The RSS and RSS Set Aside Sub-Agency List requests
grantees to provide the agency name, city, state, website, and funding
amount for each contracted sub-grantee.
The information will be used for national resource mapping
pertaining to ORR RSS funding at the local level. Improved
communication and the knowledge of all local providers is important to
ORR's overall oversight of the program. In addition to RSS formula
funding to states and state replacement agencies who then issue sub-
awards to local providers, ORR also awards discretionary grants that
directly fund local refugee service providers. This report will
continue to provide ORR a complete picture of the availability all ORR
resources to assist newly arrived refugees at the local level
increasing our ability to identify gaps or target areas of need.
Respondents: State agencies and replacement designees under 45 CFR
400.301(c) administering or supervising the administration of programs.
