This section includes a place where you can insert a copy of the most current AFI Program funding opportunity Announcement. OCS published a general funding opportunity announcement on February 9, 2005, and it has updated that announcement with minor updates since that time. We encourage you to download and print the current announcement and add it in this section of your handbook.

The current announcement and additional information documents are available on the following Web sites:

• AFI Asset-Building Web site
• Administration for Children and Families Web site
• Grants.gov Web site

Note:

When OCS publishes any amendments to the general AFI Program funding opportunity announcement, the AFI Resource Center will post them on the AFI Asset-Building Web site and notify the AFI Listservs.

The current AFI Program funding opportunity announcement sets multiple application deadlines. These are November 1, March 15 and June 15 of each Federal Fiscal Year.

OCS will not republish the AFI announcement before each funding cycle.

OCS has established a new policy of not publishing funding opportunity announcements in the Federal Register. All such announcements, and amendments, will be published via the Grants.gov Web site and posted on the Asset-Building Web site.
