»	Strengthening Communities Fund State, Local and Tribal Capacity Building Grant
	Eligibility: Government offices at the state, local or tribal level or their designees can apply for funding to strengthen or create offices encouraging partnerships with nonprofit faith-based and secular organizations. State, Local, and Tribal Government Capacity Building Program: One-time awards up to $250,000 to state, city, county, and Indian/Native American tribal government offices (e.g., offices responsible for outreach to faith-based and community organizations or those interested in initiating such an effort), or their designees, to build the capacity of non-profit faith-based and community organizations to better serve those in need and to increase non-profit organizations' involvement in the economic recovery. Grantees will use program funds to provide free capacity building services to non-profit organizations and to build their own capacity to provide such services to non-profits. The grant period for this award is 24 months. Objective: To enable non-profit organizations to contribute to the economic recovery and help federal, state, local, and Indian/Native American tribal governments ensure that the information and services described in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) reach disadvantaged and hard-to-serve populations. Program Focus: To build the capacity of non-profit organizations, whether secular or faith based, to address the broad economic recovery issues present in their communities, including helping low-income individuals secure and retain employment, earn higher wages, obtain better-quality jobs, and gain greater access to state and federal benefits and tax credits, including ARRA benefits.
