Since the release of CSBG-DCL-2021-28, several CSBG grantees have contacted OCS to express concern that they will not be able to fully obligate state controlled administrative or discretionary funds before the end of this fiscal year.

Given this, OCS is exploring all available strategies to allow states additional time to fully obligate these funds.
