Voluntary Agency Matching Grant Subrecipient Survey 

Introduction
The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) seeks to ensure that its Matching Grant (MG) Program recipients, national resettlement agencies, comply with program requirements. As part of this effort, ORR’s refugee monitoring team is gathering feedback from MG Program subrecipients, including your organization, regarding national resettlement agency headquarters monitoring, training, technical assistance. Your headquarters office is aware that ORR is requesting that you complete this survey.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to complete this short questionnaire about the oversight and guidance your local office receives from your national resettlement agency to implement the MG Program. Unless a question states otherwise, please answer based on current and past federal fiscal years. 

ORR will directly receive your responses and will not share the identity of individual respondents with your headquarters to protect anonymity. ORR may follow up with your headquarters regarding information gathered through the questionnaire and/or report summary to headquarters.

The survey consists of five structured questions and an optional open-response text box after each question. We anticipate survey completion will take approximately 5-15 minutes.

Please contact [INSERT EMAIL] with any questions or concerns regarding the completion of this survey.
