Timeline
    Description

    The Administration for Community Living (ACL) is forecasting a grant opportunity titled "UCEDD National Training Initiative to Support Youth with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities involved with the Juvenile Justice System." This initiative aims to establish a national training center through a competitive five-year grant awarded to an existing University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities Education, Research, and Service (UCEDD) or a group of UCEDDs, focusing on building community capacity to support youth with intellectual and developmental disabilities (ID/DD) who are involved with or at risk of entering the juvenile justice system. The center will develop culturally competent, person-centered training programs in collaboration with various stakeholders, including juvenile justice staff, education representatives, and family members of affected youth. Interested UCEDDs can apply for funding ranging from $350,000 to $500,000, with applications accepted only from the designated 67 current AoD grantees. For further information, applicants can contact Dana Fink at dana.fink@acl.hhs.gov, and the estimated application deadline is May 31, 2022, with awards expected to be announced by September 1, 2022.
