Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 197 / Wednesday, October 13, 2010 / Notices
The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), Children’s
Bureau (CB) announces the award of a
single-source expansion supplement to
the University of Oklahoma, National
Resource Center for Youth Services,
Tulsa, OK, to support expanded
technical assistance to address emerging
technical assistance needs for States and
Tribes as they seek to implement
legislation and changing programs
dedicated to former foster youth. The
grantee is the recipient of a cooperative
agreement to administer the National
Resource Center for Youth Development
(NRCYD). The grantee has been
providing technical assistance services
through a cooperative agreement since
September 30, 2009, pursuant to the
legislative authority of the Promoting
Safe and Stable Families Program,
Section 435(d), Title IV–B, subpart 2, of
the Social Security Act [42 U.S.C. 629e].
In February 2008, the National Youth
in Transition Database (NYTD) final
regulation was promulgated. NYTD
requires States to begin collecting
information from youth in foster care
and young adults formerly in foster care
every six months, beginning October 1,
2010. State representatives continue to
identify implementation of NYTD as a
significant challenge, particularly since
it will require State agencies to remain
in contact with youth who may no
longer be receiving services from the
agency. The implementation of NYTD
over the next four years will require the
NRCYD to continue to provide
additional technical assistance to States
to implement this regulation effectively.
Additionally, many States see the
implementation of NYTD as a method to
engage youth and to strengthen youth
involvement in services at the State and
local level. This type of youth
engagement work involves long-term
systemic technical assistance. The
expansion grant will allow the NRCYD
to support these State initiatives over
the long term.
Another significant development
affecting the provision of services to
youth and young adults was the passage
of the Fostering Connections to Success
and Increasing Adoptions Act of 2008,
Public Law 110–351, signed into law
October 7, 2008. Among other
provisions, the law added a provision
requiring States to develop a transition
plan for all youth emancipating from
foster care. The law also provides States
and Tribes an option to receive Federal
reimbursement under title IV–E of the
Social Security Act to extend foster care
to older youth until age 21. In addition,
the law for the first time provides an
opportunity for certain Indian Tribes to
receive direct funding for independent

living services and education and
training vouchers under the Chafee
Foster Care Independence Program. The
supplement will allow the NRCYD to
provide more intensive technical
assistance and on-site consultation to
States and Tribes to continue to assist
them in implementing these provisions.
