Opportunity Summary:
The Youth Engagement and Development opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number P16AS00614) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary grant action issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. Rather than being a new, open competition, it is an administrative modification that adds money to an existing project arrangement. Specifically, it modifies Task Agreement P16AC00392 to provide an additional $65,884.97 in funding. The notice also clarifies that the underlying task agreement being amended was originally competed under a broader cooperative agreement vehicle, P15AC00012, meaning the competitive selection already occurred earlier in the process and this action is simply extending or supplementing that previously selected work.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that the NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds. Cooperative agreements are often used for projects where the federal agency and the recipient coordinate closely on planning, execution, or oversight, and that structure commonly fits youth engagement and workforce development efforts that take place on public lands or in partnership with park units.
The opportunity is categorized under the funding activity area of Employment, Labor and Training and is associated with CFDA 15.931. In practical terms, that alignment signals that the supported activities are likely tied to developing job skills, providing structured work or service experiences, or engaging young people in career exploration and work-based learning connected to conservation, recreation, resource stewardship, or park operations. While the notice itself does not list a full scope of work, the title and activity category typically point to projects that place youth in meaningful roles that build employability and leadership, often through hands-on projects or service experiences.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status that are not institutions of higher education. That means the intended recipient pool is charitable nonprofit organizations (such as youth corps programs, conservation nonprofits, community organizations, or similar entities) rather than universities or colleges. Because this posting is a modification to a prior task agreement rather than a fresh solicitation, the eligibility statement is best read as describing the type of organization generally used for the original award mechanism, not as an invitation for new applicants to apply at this stage.
Financially, the award ceiling is listed as 65,884, matching the added funding amount. The expected number of awards is shown as 0, which is consistent with a modification action: no new awards are anticipated because funds are being added to an existing agreement instead of being issued through a new competition. The creation date of the posting is September 7, 2016, and the closing date is effectively not applicable in the normal sense because it is tied to amending a pre-existing task agreement rather than accepting proposals.
Overall, this notice is best understood as a funding increase to continue or expand ongoing Youth Engagement and Development work already underway under Task Agreement P16AC00392. It documents the federal intent to add $65,884.97 to that agreement under the National Park Service, using a cooperative agreement framework that typically involves active collaboration between NPS staff and the nonprofit partner delivering the youth-focused employment and training activities.
