Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2020 ACF OCS ET 1825
The Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) Legal Training and Technical Assistance (T/TA) Center opportunity is a discretionary federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Community Services (OCS). It is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the awardee should expect substantial involvement and collaboration with the federal agency during the project period rather than operating entirely independently. The intent is to continue and strengthen work OCS has supported since 2013 to expand the ability of CSBG state agencies and local CSBG-eligible entities to recognize, prevent, and resolve legal issues that affect organizational health, accountability, and performance across the CSBG Network.
The award will support a three-year effort to operate a national Legal T/TA Center that provides practical, actionable training and technical assistance tied to CSBG organizational standards. The center is expected to deliver supportive strategies for organizational assessment and improvement that reinforce a culture of success, transparency, and partnership. The scope of assistance is broad and is designed to help agencies address organizational, fiscal, and legal matters connected to key organizational standards areas, including consumer input and involvement, community engagement, community assessment, leadership, board governance, strategic planning, human resource management, financial operations and oversight, and data and analysis. In practice, this positions the center as a resource for both proactive capacity-building and targeted problem-solving when legal questions or compliance risks arise.
The work is organized around three major focus areas. First, the center will provide organizational stability and support to CSBG-eligible entities facing significant fiscal or organizational distress, including tailored consultation for entities exploring legal pathways for restructuring, shared administrative or service arrangements, or mergers. This is meant to help organizations navigate high-stakes decisions in a legally sound way while protecting continuity of services and maintaining accountability. Second, the center will deliver education and training to strengthen understanding of CSBG statutory and regulatory requirements and to help the network adapt to changing legal and regulatory conditions. This includes building baseline legal literacy, improving compliance readiness, and helping state and local entities anticipate and respond to emerging legal issues. Third, the center will promote exemplary legal practices and policies that encourage innovation while reinforcing accountability and responsiveness to community needs, aligned with CSBGs core mission of reducing poverty, revitalizing low-income communities, and empowering low-income individuals and families toward self-sufficiency in both rural and urban areas.
Administratively, the opportunity is identified as Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2020 ACF OCS ET 1825 under CFDA 93.569, categorized under Income Security and Social Services.
