Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2023 ACF OCS ET 1120
The Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) Regional Performance and Innovation Consortium (RPIC) Capacity Building and Quality Improvement (CBQI) - Region IV-B funding opportunity is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Community Services (OCS). The award is designed to strengthen the performance of the CSBG Network by investing in regional leadership that can deliver targeted training and technical assistance (T/TA). The overall aim is to help CSBG lead agencies and eligible local entities provide higher-quality, more consistent services that support individuals and families in achieving and sustaining economic self-sufficiency.
Under this opportunity, OCS plans to fund one recipient to serve as the Region IV-B RPIC for a three-year project period. The RPIC is expected to act as the region's hub for capacity building and quality improvement support, working with state and territory CSBG lead agencies, the CSBG State Association, and CSBG-eligible entities. Because this is a cooperative agreement, the recipient is not simply funded to operate independently; instead, it must maintain an ongoing, close partnership with OCS to ensure that planned activities, deliverables, and outcomes align with CSBG purposes and OCS priorities. The recipient is also expected to keep stakeholders informed by communicating regularly about progress and implementation throughout the life of the project.
A central responsibility of the RPIC will be to identify, align, and respond to training needs across the region related to organizational capacity building and continuous quality improvement. The T/TA topics are expected to include, but are not limited to, organizational self-assessment, strategic planning tied to service delivery, building and sustaining strategic partnerships, leveraging existing resources more effectively, developing and strengthening worker training models, standardizing key processes and procedures, and improving how Community Needs Assessments are conducted and used. In practice, this means the RPIC should help agencies strengthen their internal operations and decision-making so that program services are more efficient, data-informed, and responsive to community priorities.
The approach to training and technical assistance must be grounded in the collection and analysis of emerging and promising practices in capacity building. In other words, the RPIC is expected to pay attention to what is working across the field, translate lessons learned into practical supports, and promote methods that can be replicated or adapted by CSBG organizations. Delivery formats can be flexible and should fit the region's needs, including in-person or virtual regional convenings, direct one-on-one technical assistance, webinars, training modules, podcasts, presentations, and other learning activities. Just as important, the recipient must evaluate the effectiveness of the assistance it provides, demonstrating that the support offered leads to measurable improvements in capacity, performance, and ultimately the outcomes experienced by the communities served.
