    In Fiscal Year 2010, the USCIS Office of Citizenship is offering two competitive funding opportunities for organizations preparing lawful permanent residents (LPRs) for citizenship.

    The Citizenship and Integration Direct Services Grant Program (DHS-10-CIS-010-003) will provide grants of up to $100,000 to strengthen locally-based citizenship service providers. The Citizenship and Integration National Capacity Building Grant Program (DHS- 10-CIS-010-002) will provide up to $500,000 to increase the capacity of members or affiliates of national, regional, or statewide organizations to offer citizenship services in underserved communities.


    Direct Services Grant Program (Funding Opportunity: DHS-10-CIS-010-003)

    DHS will make grant awards to support both program types. Organizations proposing citizenship education services only will not be in direct competition with organizations proposing both citizenship education services and naturalization application preparation services. Organizations proposing citizenship education services only can receive a maximum score of 100 points and will compete with organizations proposing those same services. Organizations proposing both citizenship education services and naturalization application preparation services can receive a maximum score of 160 points and will compete with organizations proposing those same services. Two separate ranked lists will be forwarded for final funding decisions. Please refer to Section V of the Direct Services Grant Program funding announcement for a full description of the review process and evaluation criteria.
