SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description:
On September 29, 2023, FYSB awarded funding for the first time to Runaway and Homeless Youth-Prevention Demonstration Program (RHY-PDP) projects to design and deliver community-based demonstration initiatives to prevent youth from experiencing homelessness. Through the development and coordination of partnerships with youth and young adults, community organizations, and private and public agencies, the RHY-PDP grantees will: (1) design and develop a comprehensive community-based prevention plan to prevent youth homelessness; (2) identify young people at risk of experiencing homelessness; and (3) implement robust, holistic prevention services tailored for youth and young adults to respond to the diverse needs of youth who are at risk of homelessness and their families. The RHY-PDP has two phases with the first phase serving as a 6-month timeline for grant recipients to develop and submit a comprehensive prevention plan to prevent youth homelessness.
The Prevention Plans can include:
Grantee definition of prevention
Summary of risk and protective factors for youth experiencing homelessness
How grantees will identify at risk youth to include existing data to assist in identification
Referral strategies for youth
Explanation of the process of how youth with lived experience and community partners co-designed the prevention plan
List of prevention interventions
All related goals and performances measures planned
List of community partners and their roles.
FYSB will utilize the Prevention Plans to provide technical assistance to grantees, as needed, and will post the Prevention Plans to the FYSB website for grantees' peer-to-peer learning.
Respondents:
All grant recipients that receive an RHY-PDP grant for the prevention demonstration.
Total Burden Estimates
FYSB awarded 11 grants in September 2023 and anticipates awarding a second cohort next year. The number of respondents reflects a potential second cohort of grant recipients that would also be required to submit the Prevention Plan.
