Additional Information of Eligibility:
Eligible applicants for these grants are public or private non-profit agencies or organizations including rural, urban or Native American agencies.
Because grantees who received funding from the Fiscal Year (FY) 2010 2011 YouthBuild competition [SGA/DFA PY 10-02] have funding through 2014, these grantees (including any affiliates or members or affiliates of a grantees leadership team) are not eligible to participate in this competition.
The Department plans to hold annual YouthBuild competitions, and those who received awards in FY 2010 or FY 2011 through the combined competition will be eligible to participate in the FY 2013 competition.
