The purpose of the R&P Program is to promote the successful reception and placement of all persons who are admitted to the United States under the U. S. Refugee Admissions Program.

For the purpose of this announcement, �refugee� is defined as a person admitted to the United States under section 207(c) of the INA, as amended, or a person to whom eligibility for the resettlement assistance available to individuals admitted under section 207 (c) has been extended by statute.

To accomplish this goal, the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) recognizes the desirability for public or private non-profit organizations to provide R&P services and to assist refugees to achieve economic self-sufficiency as quickly as possible.

The program goals and objectives set forth in this announcement have been established in accordance with these statutory provisions.

The Bureau partners with and provides partial financial support to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to carry out the R&P Program.

Participating organizations are expected to combine the Bureau�s financial assistance with existing and projected private resources for the provision of R&P services for refugees admitted to the United States during the period October 1, 2011 through September 30, 201 2. The Bureau intends to award Cooperative Agreements (CA) for FY 2012 to well-qualified non-profit organizations able to offer a range of services in multiple locations across the United States.

This will include applicants that have demonstrated satisfactory performance under previous agreements with the Bureau and/or applicants that meet the selection criteria described below and have demonstrated the capacity to provide required services.
