Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2010 National Mentoring Programs grant (Funding Opportunity Number OJJDP 2010 2546) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity from the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention under CFDA 16.726 (Juvenile Mentoring Program). Its main purpose is to strengthen mentoring efforts for high risk children and youth by helping communities enhance or expand mentoring initiatives, especially in places or circumstances where mentoring services are hard to deliver or are currently inadequate. The solicitation focuses on building the development and maturity of community based mentoring programs that serve populations considered underserved because of geographic isolation, a shortage of available mentors, special physical or mental challenges among the youth being served, or other comparable barriers that the local community identifies as preventing access to quality mentoring.
A key feature of this opportunity is that it is structured for national organizations rather than local applicants applying directly. Eligibility is limited to national organizations defined as having active programs, with financial relationships to affiliates, in at least 45 states. In addition, national headquarters applicants must use a subaward approach: they are required to pass through 90 percent of the federal award funds to subrecipients across the country. Those subawards must reach at least 75 percent of the states, meaning the funding is intended to support a broad, multi state network of local mentoring programs rather than concentrating resources in only a few locations. Individual subaward amounts may be up to $500,000 each, which sets an upper limit on how much any one affiliate or local partner can receive through the national grantee.
The opportunity is tied to federal appropriations authority, specifically the Department of Justice Appropriations Act, 2010 (Public Law 111 117), which authorizes OJJDPs National Mentoring Programs initiative. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is Law, Justice, and Legal Services. The posting date for the solicitation was March 8, 2010, and applications were due by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on April 22, 2010. Applications had to be submitted electronically through the Office of Justice Programs Grants Management System (OJP GMS) at https://grants.ojp.usdoj.gov/. No cost sharing or matching requirement was indicated, meaning applicants were not required by the solicitation to provide non federal match funding as a condition of eligibility.
Several administrative fields in the listing (Award Ceiling and Award Floor shown as 0) do not provide a specific minimum or maximum total award amount at the listing level, so the clearest funding guidance in the summary is the program design requirement to subaward most funds and the cap of $500,000 per subaward. For applicants needing the complete program requirements, allowable uses, performance expectations, and other formal conditions, the listing points to the full announcement link.
