This RFP is the culmination of a series of DOJ meetings with tribal governments and leaders across the country. In response to concerns about too many separate funding streams, DOJ developed this Coordinated Tribal Assistance Solicitation (CTAS) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2010, combining DOJ’s existing Tribal government-specific competitive solicitations, including tribal youth programs providing interventions such as mentoring, into one, and thus requiring only one application from each Tribe or Tribal consortium.

As you can imagine, the solicitation is lengthy, consolidating about 10 funding streams, covering the gamut from violence impacting elders, women and children. Here is the portion that pertains specifically to youth mentoring:

"To provide interventions for court-involved Tribal youth, including graduated sanctions, restitution, diversion, home detention, foster and shelter care, and mentoring"
