Youth Pride Inc.

Youth Pride Inc., a non-profit organization based in Providence, Rhode Island, receives federal grant funding as a prime recipient and sub-recipient to deliver housing, supportive services, and victim advocacy to LGBTQ+ youth experiencing homelessness and crime victimization in the Northeast.

Youth Pride Inc. operates as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt entity focused on serving youth ages 24 and under. The organization's federal work centers on two grant programs administered by the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development and the Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs. As a prime grant recipient under HUD's Continuum of Care (CoC) Program (CFDA 14.267), Youth Pride Inc. has received $183,260 for the January 1–December 31, 2026 award period and $167,274 for the January 1–December 31, 2025 period to prevent and end homelessness among LGBTQ+ youth. The 2026 award supports five eligible program components: permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services only, and Homeless Management Information Systems (HMIS), delivered through trauma-informed case management, rental assistance, and leasing support. Youth Pride Inc. also received a Youth Homelessness Demonstration Program (YHDP) grant from HUD running through December 31, 2024. As a sub-recipient, Youth Pride Inc. receives pass-through funding from the Rhode Island Department of Public Safety under the Department of Justice's Victims of Crime program; a March 3, 2026 sub-award funds support services for youth affected by crime, and an April 1, 2024 sub-award funded direct services to LGBTQ+ youth crime victims under age 23, including comprehensive social service, educational support, and advocacy for survivors of hate-related crimes, relationship violence, sexual assault, and child abuse.

Youth Pride Inc.'s recent award activity shows modest but consistent volume — five awards across four years (2022, 2024, 2025, 2026) with combined obligated dollars of $740,000. The organization serves two distinct federal customer agencies. One award reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating limited near-term recompete exposure on current prime grants, though renewal or replacement opportunities under the CoC Program may surface through future HUD funding cycles.
