How to Report COVID Expenditures on the PPR
Title VI grantees should be able to provide information on how COVID Supplemental grants (FFCRA, CARES, etc.) were spent during the period of 4/1/2020 – 3/31/2021. There are two ways that grantees can share this information with ACL:
1: You can fill out the COVID reporting template in Excel or Fillable PDF and attach it to your PPR in OAAPS; OR
2: You can type it directly into the Finance Optional Explanation sections in OAAPS (How-To Guide).
If you choose to use the worksheet, please see a sample of a completed worksheet here.

New: Title VI Evaluation Tool
