ACL Update on CIL and ILS PPRs

Staff at the Office of Independent Living Programs have been reviewing CIL and ILS PPRs and have returned several for minor revisions or for additional information/clarifications. We use the PPR tool and process as a tool to communicate with CILs around the work they’re doing. For instance, a CIL or DSE may have entered the incorrect grant award amount from their Notice of Award, in which case we would send it back to ask for the update to be made.  When a PPR is returned, it should in no way be seen as a rejected PPR.
