Under this NOFA, Treasury announces the availability of approximately $40.9 million for payments for successful outcomes of social impact partnership projects through grants to State and local governments, and, for required project evaluations, the availability of up to approximately $6.1 million. All awards provided through this NOFA are subject to funding availability. As stated in the Act, the purposes of the SIPPRA program are
- To improve the lives of families and individuals in need;
- To redirect funds away from programs that, based on objective data, are ineffective, and into programs that achieve demonstrable, measurable results;
- To ensure federal funds are used effectively on social services to produce positive outcomes for both service recipients and taxpayers;
- To establish the use of social impact partnerships to address some of the Nation’s most pressing problems;
- To facilitate the creation of public-private partnerships that bundle philanthropic or other private resources with existing public spending to scale up effective social interventions already being implemented;
- To bring pay for performance to the social sector, allowing the United States to improve the impact and effectiveness of vital social services programs while redirecting inefficient or duplicative spending; and
- To incorporate outcomes measurement and randomized controlled trials or other rigorous methodologies for assessing program impact.

- social impact partnership project grants, including grants to pay for independent evaluations for such projects, and
