Senior Community Service Employment Program — CFDA 17.235

SCSEP obligations at $1.28 billion

USAspending.gov records $1,284,092,152.98 in obligations under CFDA 17.235. Three hundred eighty awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $3,379,190 per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical national-grantee allocation and not a cost per participant slot. The $1,284,092,152.98 figure is an obligation sum from the assistance extract. Rounded, that stock is 1.3 billion in USAspending obligations.

The assistance-listing title is SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICE EMPLOYMENT PROGRAM. CFDA 17.235 is the identifier. Other employment or aging listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $1.28 billion. Combining those codes would invent a combined workforce total this packet does not contain.

81 recipients across 57 jurisdictions

Eighty-one recipients share 380 awards, or about 4.7 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $1,284,092,152.98 evenly would assign about $15.85 million per recipient. That density is a national-and-state operator pattern: a modest organizational headcount carrying multiple assistance rows. The packet does not list the 81. Recipient count is not a census of host agencies or older workers.

Fifty-seven jurisdictions in the geographic count cover states plus territories and other coded entities in the USAspending state field. SCSEP dollars still follow statutory and competitive allocations, not equal shares. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.

Award rows are not a participant census

Among labor listings, 17.235 is a national operator file: 380 rows against 81 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of community-service jobs” and a worse proxy for participants. Recipients (81) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (380) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report enrollment, hours worked, or unsubsidized exits. Citing 380 as jobs created would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. The $1,284,092,152.98 stock is the obligation book only.

Obligations versus SCSEP outlays

The $1,284,092,152.98 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Senior Community Service Employment Program awards — are not in the packet. An operator file can show a large obligation stock while program-year draws follow a later calendar. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. A remaining-balance question is an outlay question this extract does not answer.

What the 17.235 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a participant roster, not a host-agency directory, and not a placement ledger. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $1,284,092,152.98. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 380 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 57 jurisdictions is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid to operators. A researcher comparing 17.235 with other workforce codes should keep CFDA numbers separate.

A researcher comparing 17.235 with other workforce or aging codes should keep CFDA numbers separate. The 81-recipient headcount is organizational, not a host-agency census.
