Opportunity Information: Apply for USDA NIFA EXCA 010126
The Yellow Ribbon Reintegration Program Youth Support and Internship Program is a discretionary grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture through the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (USDA NIFA). It is published under the funding opportunity number USDA NIFA EXCA 010126 and is listed under CFDA (Assistance Listing) 10.500. The program notice explains what NIFA is looking to fund, lays out the project objectives for Youth Support Internship Program activities, and provides the required application forms along with instructions, key deadlines, and other administrative requirements applicants must follow.
At a high level, the opportunity supports projects that align with the Yellow Ribbon Reintegration Program focus on reintegration support, with this particular notice centering on a Youth Support and Internship approach. The notice indicates that proposed projects should be designed around the specific objectives defined for the Youth Support Internship Program, and applicants are expected to structure their work plans and budgets to directly address those stated objectives. As with typical NIFA competitive announcements, the notice serves as the authoritative source for what must be included in an application package, how proposals will be evaluated, and what compliance or reporting expectations apply if an award is made.
Funding is provided in the form of a grant, with an award ceiling listed at $950,000. The opportunity record also lists an expected awards field, but the number of awards is not specified in the provided source details. The original closing date for submissions was September 11, 2023, and the opportunity was created on August 3, 2023, which suggests a relatively short application window and reinforces the importance of following the notice instructions closely, including any formatting, page limits, and required attachments.
Eligibility is narrowly defined. Only Land-grant Institutions are eligible to apply and receive an award under this Youth Support Internship Program. The eligible set explicitly includes 1862, 1890, and 1994 Land-grant Universities and Colleges. Other types of applicants are not eligible as prime applicants under this notice, meaning that any non-Land-grant partners would typically need to participate through collaboration with an eligible Land-grant institution, if the program notice allows subawards or contractual partnerships.
From an administrative classification standpoint, the activity category is listed as Agriculture, and the sponsoring agency is USDA NIFA. The notice emphasizes that it contains the objectives, deadlines, funding information, eligibility criteria for both projects and applicants, and the required application forms and instructions. In practical terms, that means the full announcement is intended to be used as a checklist: confirm institutional eligibility as a Land-grant institution (1862, 1890, or 1994), design a project that directly matches the Youth Support Internship Program objectives described in the notice, prepare the application using the specified forms, and submit by the stated deadline under the terms and process NIFA requires.Apply for USDA NIFA EXCA 010126
