About Avenues For Youth

Avenues For Youth, a Minnesota-based tax-exempt nonprofit organization, is a federal grant recipient (90% prime recipient, 10% sub-recipient) delivering homeless youth housing and supportive services to the Department of Housing and Urban Development and the Department of Health and Human Services. The organization operates as a direct recipient on federal grants rather than a federal contractor, with no federal contract prime awardees in the source record.

Avenues For Youth's federal grant footprint centers on two core programs funded through HUD and ACYF. Under HUD's Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267), the organization has received recurring annual grants since 2022 to operate permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, and transitional housing services in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area; the most recent CoC award of $256,837 (awarded May 1, 2026, completion April 30, 2027) funds operations across the region. Under ACYF's Transitional Living for Homeless Youth program (CFDA 93.550), the organization operates the Brooklyn Avenues Transitional Living Program and Minneapolis Avenues Transitional Living Program, providing safe residential shelter and wraparound supportive services including case management, basic life skills training, educational and job attainment assistance, and counseling to runaway and homeless youth ages 16 to 22; the most recent ACYF award of $284,730 (awarded September 30, 2025, completion September 29, 2028) funds the Brooklyn program. HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development (12 awards) dominates the award count, while ACYF (5 awards plus 1 additional HHS line) rounds out the active federal customer base. As a sub-recipient, Avenues For Youth partners with Hennepin County, Minnesota to deliver youth services and homelessness prevention (sub-grant awards in June 2024 and August 2023).

Award volume has remained relatively flat over the past five years (three awards in 2022–2023, declining to one or two annually through 2026), with combined dollars obligated across all awards totaling $10.2 million. Only one award reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal near-term recompete exposure. The organization's federal footprint is narrowly concentrated in HUD and HHS youth homelessness and supportive housing programs operating in Minnesota, with no direct federal contracting activity or presence on government-wide acquisition vehicles.
