Program Office: Rehabilitation Services Administration (RSA)
CFDA Number: 84.161A
Program Type: Formula Grants
Also Known As: CAP
The purpose of this program is to advise and inform clients, client applicants, and other individuals with disabilities of all the available services and benefits under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, and of the services and benefits available to them under Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). In addition, grantees may assist and advocate for clients and client applicants in relation to projects, programs, and services provided under the Rehabilitation Act. In providing assistance and advocacy under Title I of the Rehabilitation Act, a CAP agency may provide assistance and advocacy with respect to services that are directly related to employment for the client or client applicant.
Agencies designated by the governor to provide CAP services help clients or client applicants pursue concerns they have with programs funded under the Rehabilitation Act. The governor may designate a public or private entity to operate the CAP.
Applications must be sent to the person and address listed below.
The Client Assistance Program (CAP) grantees must submit a signed "Certification Regarding Lobbying" each year (Form ED 80-013, revised March 8, 2004) to comply with the certification requirements under 34 CFR Part 82, "New Restrictions on Lobbying."
Please note that CAPs are no longer required to submit assurances on an annual basis. However, in the event the program is redesignated or the statutory requirements of the assurances change, the program must submit assurances on form 1820-0520 as part of the application package.
