Federal Grant Award Summary

Evergreen Youth & Family Services, Inc. received a $350,000 Project Grant from the Administration on Children, Youth and Families (ACYF) under the Transitional Living for Homeless Youth program (CFDA 93.550), awarded September 30, 2025, with a three-year performance period extending through September 29, 2028. The award funds the Evergreen Transitional Living Program (TLP), which provides safe, stable residential shelter to 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 designed to support youth transition to self-sufficiency and stable independent living, including basic life skills training, educational and employment attainment opportunities, case management, counseling, health care referrals, family reunification assistance, and street-based outreach. Services are trauma-informed and victim-centered, with particular attention to youth at risk of or subjected to sexual exploitation and human trafficking. Outcome measurement focuses on four core areas: safe and stable housing, education or employment, permanent connections, and social and emotional well-being.
