Vineyard Family Services Of Central Alabama Inc.

Vineyard Family Services Of Central Alabama Inc., a nonprofit organization headquartered in Pelham, Alabama, operates as a sub-recipient on federal grants focused on youth justice and family intervention, with no prime contracting footprint and no parent contract vehicles. The organization acts exclusively as a grant sub-recipient, holding 75% of its recent award portfolio in that role.

Vineyard's federal customer base is singular and narrow. The Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention funds 100% of the organization's recent awards (4 sub-grants totaling $683 thousand combined obligated value). Work is delivered through the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs as the prime grantee. The core capability is the Pathways to Desistance program, which delivers in-home case management, parent and youth education, online education access, advocacy, and service linkage to justice-involved youth and their families. The organization serves caseloads of up to 50 families per case manager, with each family receiving six months of structured intervention. Representative work includes a Pathways to Desistance sub-award dated December 2, 2025, supporting youth at risk of detention, those exiting detention, and those exiting the Department of Youth Services; and two prior mentoring sub-awards in October 2022 and October 2023. Place of performance centers on Shelby County, Alabama, with coordination through local Juvenile Probation Services and the Shelby County Regional Juvenile Detention Facility.

Activity is sparse and episodic — one award per year in 2020, 2022, 2023, and 2025, with no awards recorded in intervening years. The organization holds no IDIQs, GWACs, BPAs, or agency-wide vehicles and does not compete for federal contracts. Growth opportunity is confined to increased task-order volume under the single Department of Justice grantor relationship through ADECA.
