    during each 3-year period.
        (2) An onsite review of each newly designated entity immediately 
    after the completion of the first year in which such entity receives 
    funds through the community services block grant program.
        (3) Followup reviews including prompt return visits to eligible 
    entities, and their programs, that fail to meet the goals, 
    standards, and requirements established by the State.
        (4) Other reviews as appropriate, including reviews of entities 
    with programs that have had other Federal, State, or local grants 
    (other than assistance provided under this chapter) terminated for 
    cause.

    The State may request training and technical assistance from the 
Secretary as needed to comply with the requirements of this section.
