“Applications must have: […] provided or funded the provision of wraparound supports, as needed, to project participants who are facing barriers to participation, particularly but not exclusively for equity-deserving groups. This requirement applied to projects that have individual participants only. […] [Wraparound Supports are a] set of supports or services provided to an individual, particularly, though not exclusively from an equity-deserving group, that are necessary to remove barriers to their participation in the project. The types of supports or services provided depends on the individual’s level of need, as determined by the project proponent. Wrap-around supports may include but are not limited to: // Temporary childcare and/or dependent care costs // Temporary accommodation // Public transportation to and from project activities // Access to technology relevant to project participation.”
