Grant Award Summary

Safe Place For Youth Inc. received a $350,000 Project Grant from the Administration on Children, Youth and Families under the Transitional Living for Homeless Youth program (CFDA 93.550), awarded September 30, 2025, through September 29, 2028. The grant funds "SPY's MGH Program-The Nest," a Maternity Group Home (MGH) providing comprehensive residential and supportive services to pregnant and parenting youth ages 16-21 experiencing or at-risk of homelessness and/or trafficking in Los Angeles County. Services include safe, stable residential shelter for up to 18 months combined with wraparound supportive services such as life skills training, parenting education, educational and employment support, case management, and counseling designed to facilitate youth transition to self-sufficiency and stable independent living.

The award supports the organization's mission-aligned service delivery model emphasizing trauma-informed, victim-centered care that addresses four core federal outcome areas: safe and stable housing, education or employment attainment, permanent connections, and social and emotional well-being. This award represents continuation of Safe Place For Youth Inc.'s federal funding under the Transitional Living for Homeless Youth program, following prior awards supporting Maternity Group Home, Transitional Housing, and Street Outreach programs completed through September 2025.
