Employment and Training Administration May 2007 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Employment and Training Administration announces the availability of approximately $20 million for Youthful Offender Grants. These grants will be awarded through a competitive process for three categories of projects(1) Registered Apprenticeship (to increase the placement of young adults being released from the criminal justice system in registered apprenticeship); (2) Alternative Educational Pathways (to increase the educational achievement and attainment of youth in the juvenile justice system); and (3) Project Expansion (to replicate effective programs for serving juvenile offenders). Applicants can apply for grants in more than one of these categories, but separate applications must be submitted for each category. This solicitation provides background information and describes the application submission requirements, outlines the process that eligible entities must use to apply for funds covered by this solicitation, and outlines the evaluation criteria used as a basis for selecting the grantees.

The Employment and Training Administration published a document in the Federal Register of April 5, 2007, announcing the availability of funds and solicitation for grant applications for small grassroots organizations with the ability to connect to the local One- Stop Delivery System. The document is hereby amended.
