Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2023 ACF ACYF YO 0019
The FY 2023 Street Outreach Program (SOP) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), specifically the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Administration on Children, Youth and Families (ACYF) within the Family and Youth Services Bureau (FYSB). It is designed to fund street-based outreach and engagement efforts for runaway, homeless, and street-involved youth, especially those who have experienced, or are at serious risk of experiencing, sexual abuse, prostitution, sexual exploitation, and severe forms of human trafficking. The core idea of the program is to meet young people where they actually are in the community, build trust through consistent outreach, reduce immediate harm, and connect them to safe and appropriate services.
The program focuses on delivering services in the specific places where street youth congregate. Instead of waiting for youth to come to an office or shelter on their own, SOP-funded projects are expected to conduct proactive outreach that helps youth make healthier and safer choices and creates a pathway to stability. Practical, immediate supports are central to the approach, including access to basic needs such as food and hygiene packages, along with information and referrals to a broad range of available services. A key priority is linking youth to shelter and other safe options, recognizing that many young people facing exploitation or trafficking risks also face barriers like mistrust of systems, fear of retaliation, lack of identification, mental health challenges, substance use, or prior negative experiences with institutions.
This opportunity is offered as a grant under Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2023-ACF-ACYF-YO-0019 and is associated with CFDA (Assistance Listing) 93.557, within the funding activity area of Income Security and Social Services. The government anticipated making about 31 awards, with an award ceiling of $150,000 per award. Applications were originally due on June 20, 2023, with electronic submissions required by 11:59 pm Eastern Time on the deadline date.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of public and nonprofit entities that are positioned to deliver outreach and connect youth to services. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; Native American tribal governments (federally recognized); public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; Native American tribal organizations that are not federally recognized tribal governments; and nonprofit organizations both with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions in those nonprofit categories). The opportunity also notes an “Others” category, with additional eligibility clarification referenced in the full announcement.
Overall, the FY 2023 SOP grant is intended to strengthen local capacity to identify and engage vulnerable youth on the street, provide immediate survival resources, deliver trauma-informed and safety-oriented outreach, and connect youth to shelter and supportive services that reduce the likelihood of continued exploitation or trafficking. The emphasis is on targeted, street-level intervention in high-need locations, with practical supports and service navigation that can help youth move from crisis and risk toward safety and longer-term stability.Apply for HHS 2023 ACF ACYF YO 0019
