program.
> The RFA outlines grant opportunities between US organizations and Russian
> organizations in the Russian Far East.  For more information on the US RFE

> social and economic development in the Volga Federal District (VFD).
Funded
> by USAID, PartNER is the newest stage in the development of
Russian-American
> partnership projects. By facilitating and strengthening partnerships
between
> organizations and institutions in the US and Russia, the PartNER program
> will benefit the most vulnerable groups of the society--women, youth,
> elderly, unemployed, and people with different abilities, who need
> assistance to reintegrate successfully into their communities.
