Description
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA), in partnership with the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), requests new applications for Mentoring at Risk and Rural Youth (MARRY), a new competitive grant program. The mission of the MARRY program is to expand opportunities for 1) rural youth, 2) juvenile justice-involved youth, and 3) youth at risk of juvenile justice involvement to receive mentoring services through 4-H programming.
MARRY was developed in partnership with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), Office of Justice Programs (OJP), OJJDP, in support of OJJDP’s priority to address the challenges and barriers to success that many juvenile justice-involved youth encounter as well as to increase access to mentoring services for at-risk and rural youth.
