180 Degrees Inc., a Minneapolis-based nonprofit, delivers emergency shelter, food, clothing, counseling, and health care referrals to youth under 18 years of age who have run away, been forced to leave home, or lack safe alternative living arrangements. The program provides up to 21 days of emergency shelter and seeks to reunite youth with their families when safe or locate appropriate alternative placements. The award funds operations through September 29, 2028, with performance at the shelter location in Minnesota.

The Basic Center Program funds community-based outreach and crisis intervention services designed to prevent youth from entering contact with law enforcement or the child welfare, mental health, or juvenile justice systems. Awards are structured as three-year project periods with three 12-month budget periods. Non-competing continuations are issued annually based on satisfactory progress, compliance with award terms, and determination that continuation funding serves the federal interest.
