Training, Employment And Community Help, Inc.

Training, Employment And Community Help, Inc., doing business as T.e.a.c.h., Inc., is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Alturas, California, that operates as a grant recipient and sub-recipient in federal human services programs, primarily serving low-income and vulnerable populations across California. The organization does not hold federal prime contracts; its federal footprint consists exclusively of grant work (22% prime recipient, 78% sub-recipient across 36 awards).

T.e.a.c.h., Inc. delivers services spanning child care assistance, low-income energy assistance, domestic violence support, sexual assault victim services, and homelessness prevention under HUD's Continuum of Care program. As a prime recipient, the organization holds two active Continuum of Care project grants from HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development, both awarded in 2025–2026, focused on permanent supportive housing, transitional housing, and homeless management information systems. As a sub-recipient, T.e.a.c.h., Inc. channels federal funding through California state agencies — primarily the Department of Community Services & Development, Department of Social Services, Department of Education, Office of Emergency Services — for services including Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) weatherization and emergency assistance, Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) assistance, Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) meal provision, domestic violence shelter operations, sexual assault crisis intervention, and Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) coordination. Recent sub-awards span awards from June 2024 through June 2026, with multiple overlapping grants under LIHEAP, CCDF, and victim-services programs.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward federal social-services agencies. The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families accounts for 21 awards (covering child care, food assistance, and family services); the Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs Victims of Crime Program accounts for 5 awards; and the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service accounts for 2 awards. These top customers represent 78% of award count, though combined potential-value reporting is minimal — the source shows $10 thousand in combined potential value across all 36 awards against $2.3 million in dollars obligated (reflecting the grant-reimbursement structure typical of social-services sub-awards). The organization operates exclusively within federal grant mechanisms; it does not compete on IDIQs, GWACs, BPAs, or contract vehicles.

Activity has been episodic. The organization received four awards in 2021, then a gap through 2022, followed by six awards in 2023, nine in 2024, and seven in 2025. Two awards face completion within the next twenty-four months. The sub-award-heavy posture (78% of all awards) and concentration in California state pass-through grants indicate T.e.a.c.h., Inc. operates as a delivery partner for federally funded social services rather than as a prime federal vendor, with no direct federal contracting relationships.
