About this award
The Kentucky Department of Military Affairs received a $6.81M Cooperative Agreement from the Department of Defense Washington Headquarters Service, effective July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026, to operate the Appalachian Youth Challenge Academy under the National Guard ChalleNGe Program (CFDA 12.404). The Academy delivers a 5-6 month residential program providing military-based training and comprehensive youth development services to at-risk youth aged 16-18 in the Appalachian region. Core program components include academic coursework, high school diploma or equivalency credential assistance, job skills training, physical fitness programming, mentoring, and community service opportunities designed to improve educational achievement, employment potential, and life skills for credit-deficient or school-disconnected youth.
The National Guard ChalleNGe Program is a congressionally directed, non-discretionary federal initiative administered by the Department of the Army through the National Guard Bureau. Cooperating exclusively with state National Guard organizations, the program operates on a cost-sharing basis and requires recipients to maintain detailed expenditure records for three years following award closeout. The Appalachian Youth Challenge Academy has been a consistent recipient of this funding, with annual awards ranging from approximately $5.8M to $6.8M supporting ongoing residential military-inspired training and educational intervention services at the facility in Grays Knob, Kentucky.
