Community Youth Services received a $350,000 Project Grant from the Administration on Children, Youth and Families under the Transitional Living Program (CFDA 93.550) effective September 30, 2025, through September 29, 2028. The award funds the operation of a Transitional Living Program (TLP) providing safe, stable residential shelter to runaway and homeless youth ages 16 to under 22 for up to 18 months, extendable to 21 months under exceptional circumstances.

The program delivers comprehensive supportive services designed to facilitate the transition of homeless youth to self-sufficiency and stable independent living. Core services include basic life skills training, educational and job attainment opportunities, and counseling. The program targets four primary outcome areas: social and emotional well-being, permanent connections, education or employment, and safe and stable housing. Community Youth Services will operate the residential facility and deliver these integrated services to eligible youth in the Washington service area throughout the three-year funding period.
