Federal Grant Award Summary

Larkin Street Youth Services received a $350,000 Project Grant award from the Administration on Children, Youth and Families under the Transitional Living for Homeless Youth program (CFDA 93.550), effective September 30, 2025 through September 29, 2028. The award funds the 1020 Haight Transitional Living Program (TLP), which provides safe, stable shelter for runaway and homeless youth ages 16 to under 22 for up to 18 months, extendable to 21 months under extenuating circumstances. The program delivers comprehensive wraparound services including basic life skills training, educational and employment attainment opportunities, counseling, and case management designed to support youth transition to self-sufficiency and stable, independent living.

The TLP operates within a federal framework focused on four core outcome areas: safe and stable housing, education or employment, permanent connections, and social and emotional well-being. As an established San Francisco-based nonprofit with demonstrated expertise in serving homeless and at-risk youth populations, including LGBTQ+ youth and youth of color, Larkin Street Youth Services integrates trauma-informed, victim-centered service delivery approaches. The three-year award period aligns with the standard funding cycle for this federal program, which distributed over 70 project grants nationwide during the most recent funding round to support comparable transitional housing and supportive services for vulnerable youth populations.
