Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2017 ACF ACYF CY 1240
The Runaway and Homeless Youth Training and Technical Assistance Center opportunity is a discretionary federal funding program run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), through the Family and Youth Services Bureau (FYSB). The goal is to fund a single national provider that will deliver training and technical assistance (TTA) to strengthen and continuously improve the services offered by FYSB-funded runaway and homeless youth (RHY) grantees. The emphasis is on evidence-based quality improvement, with a particular focus on the social and emotional well-being of children, youth, and families receiving RHY services.
Under this announcement, FYSB planned to make one cooperative agreement award, meaning the federal agency would likely have an ongoing, collaborative role with the recipient in shaping and overseeing the work rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal involvement. The selected organization would be responsible for boosting both programmatic capacity (how agencies design and deliver RHY services) and administrative capacity (how agencies manage operations, compliance, performance reporting, and related systems) across the RHY grantee network. In practical terms, the center would function as a national hub for spreading effective practices, supporting implementation, and helping grantees use data and evaluation findings to improve service quality over time.
A key requirement is nationwide coverage. Applicants had to demonstrate they could serve RHY grantees in all ten ACF Federal Regions, covering the full geographic footprint of the ACF regional structure. The announcement notes that applicants may use subcontractors to ensure coverage across multi-state regional areas, but the prime applicant remains accountable for ensuring services reach all regions and that the overall TTA effort functions as a unified national initiative.
The project period is 36 months, structured into three 12-month budget periods. This structure typically signals annual budget and performance checkpoints while still operating under one multi-year project plan. The maximum federal funding level listed (award ceiling) is $2,100,000, and the expected number of awards is one, reinforcing that this is intended to be a single, centralized TTA center rather than multiple regional awards.
Eligibility is broad and includes public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education in that nonprofit category), and Native American tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments). The listing also includes an "Others" category subject to additional eligibility details in the full announcement. The program is associated with CFDA 93.623 and falls under the funding activity category of Income Security and Social Services.
The opportunity was created June 9, 2017, with an original application deadline of July 19, 2017, and required electronic submission by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The funding opportunity number is HHS-2017-ACF-ACYF-CY-1240, and the official title is Runaway and Homeless Youth Training and Technical Assistance Center.Apply for HHS 2017 ACF ACYF CY 1240
