Opportunity Information: Apply for ETA UIPL 02 22 CH3
This grant opportunity is a Department of Labor (DOL), Employment and Training Administration (ETA) funding announcement that updates and modifies an earlier Unemployment Insurance Program Letter (UIPL) grant initiative, specifically UIPL No. 02-22 (Change 3). Its core purpose is to provide additional mandatory grant funding to states connected to the "Tiger Teams" consultative assessment process. In practical terms, the funding is meant to help states carry out and complete the recommendations that were negotiated as part of those assessments, such as operational, program integrity, customer service, or administrative improvements within their unemployment insurance (UI) systems.
The opportunity is aimed at a defined group of potential applicants: states that either (1) participated in the Tiger Team consultative assessment under UIPL No. 02-22, or (2) formally expressed interest in participating by the required March 31, 2023 deadline. The eligibility field is listed broadly as "Others," but the text makes clear that the intended recipients are those states that were already engaged with the Tiger Teams effort or met the interest deadline. The overall theme is follow-through: the Tiger Teams assessment identified and negotiated recommendations, and this grant money is designed to support the actual implementation work that comes after the assessment, when states need capacity and resources to make changes.
A major element of this announcement is that it does not just add money; it also modifies the grant application and award process. The stated reason for the modification is streamlining, meaning ETA is trying to reduce administrative friction and speed up how quickly states can apply for and receive the funds. While the source text does not list the exact procedural changes in detail, the intent is explicit: accelerate and simplify the path from application to award so states can move faster on implementing the negotiated improvements identified through the Tiger Teams process.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is categorized as a mandatory grant in the employment, labor, and training area, under CFDA (now commonly referenced through Assistance Listings) number 17.225. The funding opportunity number is listed as "ETA UIPL 02 22 CH3." The total award ceiling for this announcement is $7,758,700, and ETA anticipates making approximately 45 awards. That expected award count strongly suggests broad distribution across eligible state UI agencies or jurisdictions that were part of, or properly queued into, the Tiger Teams effort.
The timeline provided indicates the announcement was created on May 19, 2023, and applications were due by July 21, 2023. Applications had to be submitted electronically through the standard federal process and were required to be received no later than 11:59 pm Eastern Time on the closing date. The announcement also encourages interested parties to use the Grants.gov subscription feature so they can receive updates tied to this specific UIPL-related opportunity, which is especially relevant when process modifications or additional guidance are issued through amendments.
For questions or clarifications, ETA provided a direct contact: Bryana Head, reachable by email at head.bryana.f@dol.gov. This is positioned as the primary point of contact for UIPL-related questions, which is typical for UIPLs because they often function both as policy guidance and as the administrative vehicle for specific UI grant actions.Apply for ETA UIPL 02 22 CH3
