This is federal money for organizations that deliver mentoring services to youth at risk of delinquency, victimization, or juvenile justice involvement, and it requires running programs across multiple states. Awards are large ($1M-$4M), so it fits established nonprofits, governments, tribes, school districts, and universities with the capacity to manage that scale. If you are a for-profit business, a small business, or a single-community mentoring group without multistate reach, do not bother.
