THIS GRANT’S FOCUS: Juvenile Justice, Job/Career Training, Youth Justice, Workforce Development
Deadline: Oct. 4, 2022 (Letters of intent)
“The Annie E. Casey Foundation requests proposals from youth justice organizations to create paid positions for emerging professionals with experience in the juvenile justice system. The Foundation will fund up to three such organizations to hire young professionals for 12–24 months. The applicants will provide the selected youth with meaningful professional experiences and career growth in the youth justice field. Through this grant, the Foundation hopes to:
(1) connect young people who have direct experience in the juvenile justice system and career interests in youth justice with organizations in the field;
(2) provide professional experiences that help youth with juvenile justice experience develop tangible, marketable skills that align with future career requirements; and
(3) encourage organizations to create and sustain paid career opportunities for youth with direct justice-system experience after the grant period and without grant funds.
The RFP allows organizations to apply with a specific young person who meets the criteria, or organizations can be matched with a young person already known to the Foundation.”

Eligibility: Nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status or that have a fiscal sponsor with 501(c)(3) status or public agencies are eligible to apply.
