Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2010 Juvenile Workforce Development Programs in El Paso, Texas grant (Funding Opportunity Number OJJDP 2010 2766) was a discretionary federal grant opportunity administered by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). It focused on supporting local, community-based initiatives in El Paso that help juvenile participants build practical workforce skills and receive training designed to improve their ability to successfully enter the job market. The program authority is tied to federal juvenile justice statutes under 42 USC 5665 and 5667, and the funded work falls under the Law, Justice, and Legal Services activity area, specifically CFDA 16.541, Part E, which emphasizes developing, testing, and demonstrating promising new programs.
At its core, the solicitation sought proposals that translated workforce development into concrete, local programming for youth. While the summary description is brief, the intent is clear: applicants were expected to design initiatives that move beyond general prevention messaging and instead provide structured opportunities for juveniles to gain marketable competencies, work readiness skills, and job training that can lead to real employment outcomes. The emphasis on "local initiatives" signals that OJJDP was looking for programming grounded in El Paso's labor market and community context, likely including connections to employers, career pathways, and hands-on skill-building that helps youth transition into lawful, stable work.
Awards under this opportunity were relatively modest in size, with an award ceiling of $100,000 and no stated minimum award amount (award floor listed as $0). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award. This structure generally lowers barriers to participation for organizations that may have strong program capacity but limited ability to raise matching funds.
Eligibility for this competition was narrowly defined. Applicants were limited to private nonprofit and for-profit organizations operating in El Paso, Texas. This restriction indicates the funding was intended for local operators rather than state agencies or entities outside the area, and it suggests OJJDP wanted direct investment into organizations positioned to deliver services on the ground in El Paso. The listing notes that additional eligibility clarification was provided in the full announcement, but the key limitation in the source data is the requirement that the organization be private (nonprofit or for-profit) and operating locally.
The application timeline was also clearly specified. The opportunity was posted on May 25, 2010, with applications due by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on June 23, 2010. The record later shows an archive date of November 6, 2011, which simply reflects when the opportunity was archived in the system, not an active deadline extension.
For applicants needing access to the complete solicitation materials, the announcement was distributed through Grants.gov, with Grants.gov Customer Support listed as the point of contact for technical access issues (1-800-518-4726). Overall, this funding opportunity can be summarized as a targeted, place-based juvenile workforce development grant designed to help El Paso organizations deliver job training and employment-readiness programming to juveniles, with the broader aim of supporting successful workforce entry and promoting promising local approaches within the juvenile justice and delinquency prevention field.
