New Funding Opportunities

Nancy found a couple of funding opportunities that may be of interest to members of the group.

• Mobilizing New Mentors Through Faith- and Community-Based Collaborations: a training opportunity scheduled for April 11-13, 2007 in Nashville. The program is hosted by MentorYouth.com, a division of National Network of Youth Ministries, and the federal Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), and The Corporation for National and Community Service.
  
  
• Targeted Capacity Expansion Program for Substance Abuse Treatment and HIV/AIDS Services: an RFA from the federal Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) to:

  enhance and expand substance abuse treatment and/or outreach and pretreatment services in conjunction with HIV/AIDS services in African American, Latino/Hispanic, and/or other racial or ethnic communities highly affected by the twin epidemics of substance abuse and HIV/AIDS.

  Programs targeted to adolescents ages 12-17 years old are among those in which CSAT is interested.
