Atlas Opportunity ScoreUnder review
FundingBoard-approved program funding: up to $3,000,000 in SFY 2027 and up to $3,000,000 in SFY 2028. Current public program materials do not establish a final per-provider award amount.
DeadlinePRE-LAUNCH / VERIFICATION HOLD. August draft timeline proposed September 25, 2026 at 8:00 AM through October 17, 2026 at 11:59 PM, but the September 17 Board agenda includes a vote on amending the application window. Final deadline and controlling time zone not yet verified.
Required next actionSeptember 18 verification: the official MECA page still has not posted minutes for the September 17 Board meeting. The posted September 17 agenda confirms the Board considered and voted on amending the grant application window, but the adopted window is not yet publicly documented. Same-day evaluation-plan drafts confirm the Flexible Workforce program remains active in development but do not establish the final application window. Keep in pre-launch verification hold. Recheck for posted minutes, final application, adopted opening/closing times and time zone, award formula, submission portal, registrations, required uploads, and restrictions before publication or outreach.
