The Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) and the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) are offering this grant to empower low-income parents and families. This grant facilitates collaborations between State IV-D agencies and ACF’s Assets for Independence (AFI) program grantees. Its purpose is to provide financial education, integrating child support information, and assist in establishing Individual Development Accounts (IDAs). These IDAs support asset building for education, homes, and small businesses. Notably, this funding opportunity waives the standard 5 percent match typically required for Section 1115 grants, aiming to enhance accessibility and foster financial stability.
