The OJJDP FY24 Mentoring for Youth Affected by Opioid and Other Substance Misuse program seeks to enhance and expand mentoring services for children and youth impacted by opioids and other substance misuse. The program provides funding to assist youth and their families negatively affected by opioids and other substances, especially youth in historically marginalized and underserved communities who will benefit the most from prevention and intervention programs.
The program's goal is to improve outcomes (such as improved academic performance and reduced school dropout rates) for youth impacted by opioids and other substance misuse through mentoring. This solicitation will seek applications in two categories: Category 1: Project Sites; Category 2: Statewide and Regional.
This webinar will provide a general overview of the program, the goals and objectives, a discussion about the application process, and a Q&A opportunity for participants.
