Farmworkers Advancement Program (FAP) Grant for Program Year 2024-25 (PY 24-25)

  Grant Amount: Estimated amount per award
Dependent

Information

Purpose:

The goal of this grant is to research, design, and implement projects that focus exclusively on farmworker needs at a regional level by offering essential skills and upskilling training for farmworkers to either advance in the agricultural industry and/or prepare for advancement outside of the agricultural sector. This grant program is intended to address multiple existing and emerging gaps in the current workforce system for farmworkers.

Description:

The awarded FAP PY 24-25 programs will position farmworkers to obtain access to good-quality jobs  including jobs that pay family sustaining wages, offer benefits, have predictable hours, opportunities for career advancement, and worker voice. Projects will also provide wrap-around support and resources to build skills to prevent job loss and lay the foundation for upward mobility. Funded programs will assist with referrals to health, housing, educational resources, and career and financial coaching.

This SFP is for two funding tracks to support Farmworker Advancement Program efforts. For Track #1, funding is available for programs demonstrating a track record of workforce outcomes. EDD estimates 5-7 awards. Track #2 programs will support the design, development, and early implementation for emerging programs and new program concepts. EDD estimates 5-8 awards. Only one application per organization per track will be accepted.
