The EDSS Carryover Program is designed to provide HAs, Tribes, or TDHEs with a range of resources that broaden the number of opportunities for families to overcome barriers to economic self-sufficiency, particularly those affected by welfare reform. EDSS funding also provides resources that address the needs of elderly or disabled persons so that they can continue independent living without institutionalization.
The 1999 awards announced in this Notice were selected for funding in a competition announced in a
Federal Register
Notice published on March 10, 1999 (64 FR 12028). Applications were scored and selected for funding based on the selection criteria in that Notice.
A total of $8,051,660.00 was awarded to 49 EDSS Carryover grantees, who
