About this opportunity

This Federal Grant Opportunity, OJJDP FY25 Multistate Mentoring Programs Initiative, is seeking to support mentoring organizations that can enhance and expand mentoring services for children and youth who are at risk or high risk for delinquency, victimization, and juvenile justice system involvement. The Department of Justice Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention is the awarding agency, and the funding is provided through the Juvenile Mentoring Program (CFDA 16.726). Key objectives include improving outcomes for at-risk and high-risk youth and reducing negative outcomes such as juvenile delinquency, substance use, and gang participation. Applicants will be evaluated on their ability to provide one-on-one, group, and peer mentoring services.

The grant opportunity does not specify award amounts, but recent funding through the Juvenile Mentoring Program has ranged from approximately $500,000 to $28 million over 2-3 year project periods. Places of performance can be nationwide for larger initiatives or state/local for smaller programs. The application deadline for this opportunity is February 24, 2025.
