• Native American Youth

• Native American Youth Grant Opportunity

The Administration for Children and Families has just announced the Family Preservation-Improving the Well-Being of Children Project Implementation (HHS-2009-ACF-ANA-NI-0059) grant.

One of the goals of the Administration for Native Americans (ANA) Family Preservation Program Announcement (PA) is to increase the percentage of youth and young adults who have the skills and knowledge to make informed decisions about healthy relationships, responsible fatherhood, and family preservation.

Some of the activities eligible for funding include:

1. Projects that provide youth education in high schools, youth organizations and community centers on the value of healthy relationships and marriages. This can include education on healthy relationship skills including conflict resolution, communication and commitment. Projects should use a pre-marital education curriculum focused on youth.
2. Projects that provide youth education in high schools, youth organizations and community centers on the value of responsible fatherhood and family preservation.

The Dibble Institute would be pleased to partner with your organization as you develop your logic model, select a pre-marital, youth focused, community sensitive curricula, and seek letters of support. The Love U2, Connections, and Art of Loving Well curricula work well with the grant’s healthy relationships and fatherhood objectives and, most importantly, are research based, evaluated programs that teens and teachers love!
