Abstract: The Grant Application is submitted by prospective grantees to apply for sponsorship of project grants under the Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP), the Foster Grandparent Program (FGP), the Senior Companion Program (SCP), and the Senior Companion Demonstration Program (SCP) collectively known as the Senior Corps. Grant Applications are reviewed by CNCS officials in making funding decisions about potential applicants and serve as the basis for establishing performance agreements with grantees on project outcomes for the community and for the volunteers. The Grant Application is also submitted by current grantees for renewals and continuations of their Senior Corps grants. The grant application has been revised to include a required Executive Summary in accordance with new procedures on open government. The Executive Summaries will be posted on the CNCS website following announcement of competition results.
