Women In Leadership New Mexico Inc.

Women In Leadership New Mexico Inc., a nonprofit organization based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, operates as a prime recipient of federal grants supporting homelessness intervention, substance abuse treatment, and reentry services for marginalized communities, with a particular focus on women and at-risk youth. The organization is minority-owned and woman-owned; it has received four federal grant awards totaling $2 million in combined obligated dollars across two distinct customer agencies since September 2024.

Women In Leadership New Mexico Inc. delivers social services through two funding streams. The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development funds the organization under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267), which accounts for three of four recent awards — a $236,653 Project Grant awarded September 1, 2025, with completion date August 31, 2026, to support permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, and supportive services including case management and HMIS activities in the Albuquerque area; and a $159,921 Project Grant awarded September 1, 2024, completing August 31, 2025. The Department of Health and Human Services' Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration funded a single $9.4 million project grant (awarded September 30, 2024, completing September 29, 2025) titled "Supporting Marginalized Communities Through Outreach and Overdose Prevention in Southwest New Mexico," which targets 150 participants across three cohorts: detained women awaiting release, recently released women in early reentry, and high-risk high school students. The SAMHSA project delivers bi-weekly telehealth sessions, weekly life skills and job readiness classes, overdose prevention training, one-on-one peer case management, and suicide and gun prevention programming across five local high schools.

Customer concentration is narrow: HUD accounts for 75% of awards by count, SAMHSA for 25%. One award reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. The organization does not hold prime federal contracts, sits on no IDVs or GWACs, and has no subcontract involvement in the source data.
