Partners

The national YouthBuild network benefits from an extraordinary public-private partnership between agencies of the federal government and the national non-profit organization YouthBuild USA, and with community-based. non-profits.

The federal YouthBuild program is authorized under the Workforce Investment Act, managed by the US Department of Labor (DOL), and funded through annual appropriations determined by Congress. Local community-based YouthBuild programs apply competitively for grants from DOL.

The federal YouthBuild program has majority bi-partisan support in both Houses of Congress. It was first introduced by Senator John Kerry (D-MA) with bi-partisan support and signed into law under President George Bush in 1992. It has been sustained by Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama.

YouthBuild USA participated in the creation of the federal YouthBuild program through collaboration with champions in Congress, and continues through the YouthBuild Coalition of 1,000 organizations to advocate for the annual appropriation. Senators John Kerry (D-MA) and Olympia Snowe (R-ME) and Representatives John Lewis (D-GA), and Shelly Moore Capito (R-WV) are the primary advocates for increased appropriations annually.

YouthBuild USA also works with DOL as a training and TA provider selected through a competitive process to assure the quality and increase the impact of local YouthBuild programs. It also raises other public and private funds for innovation, sustainability, and impact.

Community- and faith-based non-profit organizations sponsor most YouthBuild programs, although about 20% are sponsored by local public agencies.

Each YouthBuild program is responsible for securing its own funding. Generally, each program receives a mix of government funding--federal, state and local--and private support from foundations and corporations in their geographic area. Local YouthBuild programs also collaborate with other community-based organizations and local government agencies to provide in-kind resources for their students and their graduates. YouthBuild USA provides pass-through grants to local YouthBuild programs that are voluntary members of the YouthBuild USA Affiliated Network amounting to an average of ten million dollars of public and private funds each year.

Primary funding for local YouthBuild comes from the U.S. Department of Labor, administered by the Employment and Training Administration (ETA). The federal appropriation in FY09 is $70 million, supplemented by $50 million in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Since 1994, YouthBuild USA has been the federal government’s primary contractor for training, technical assistance, and quality assurance for YouthBuild grantees, selected through successive competitions.

Federal Partners

U.S. Department of Labor
In the fall of 2006, under the YouthBuild Transfer Act, the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) became the primary funder of YouthBuild programs and YouthBuild USA was selected as the primary contractor for training, technical assistance, and quality assurance for YouthBuild grantees. Since 2006, DOL has awarded approximately $160.0 million to local YouthBuild programs made available through annual appropriations by the U.S. Congress.

 In June 2004, DOL selected YouthBuild USA to participate in its Incarcerated Youth Re-Entry Program. YouthBuild USA received a $18.2 million grant over three years to be re-granted to local YouthBuild programs and to provide technical assistance to these local community organizations. A total of 975 young adults reentering their communities from the criminal justice system were served by this grant.

In December 2007, DOL awarded a $4.8 million two-year grant to YouthBuild USA to launch the YouthBuild New Orleans Initiative, which will engage 315 low-income youth in four parishes of New Orleans. YouthBuild USA will orchestrate the opening three new YouthBuild programs in New Orleans (sponsored by Catholic Charities Archdiocese of New Orleans, Orleans Parish Juvenile Court, and St. James Parish Department of Human Resources) and the expansion of an existing YouthBuild program serving Jefferson Parish that is sponsored by The Hope Center.

YouthBuild USA is a member of the YouthBuild Technical Assistance Collaborative, funded by DOL. This collaborative provides in-depth technical assistance to DOL YouthBuild grantees to build stronger organizations and to produce better outcomes for young people.  Other members of the Collaborative include the Division of Youth Services (Employment & Training Administration, DOL) and Partners for Community Solutions. 

Many local YouthBuild programs receive DOL funding from local Workforce Investment Act boards.

U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
Under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992, "Hope for Youth: YouthBuild," the U.S. Congress appropriated over $588 million for fiscal years 1993 to 2007. Annual appropriations are administered by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) through a competitive process. HUD awarded grants to local community-based organizations to operate YouthBuild programs and to YouthBuild USA to provide technical assistance, training, and capacity building to local YouthBuild programs.

Corporation for National and Community Service (AmeriCorps)
The National Service Trust Act of 1993 cited YouthBuild as an eligible community service activity. Since then, local YouthBuild programs have obtained funding for YouthBuild AmeriCorps members to perform acts of community service for which YouthBuild members receive AmeriCorps Education Awards that can be used to help pay for their college education. Local YouthBuild programs receive funding for their AmeriCorps programs through State Commissions on National and Community Service or through YouthBuild USA, which has been selected by the Corporation for National and Community Service as a "national-direct" grantee to sponsor YouthBuild AmeriCorps programs and to make AmeriCorps Education Awards to YouthBuild members across the nation.

Since 1994, YouthBuild USA has received grants from the Corporation for National and Community Service totaling over $25 million to provide pass-through grants and technical assistance to local YouthBuild programs. In March 2006, the Corporation for National and Community Service awarded a $2.9 million grant to assist with the YouthBuild AmeriCorps Rebuilding Project, which aims to help rebuild up to 300 homes in Gulfport Mississippi that were destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. In June 2006, the Mississippi State Commission awarded $1.1 million to YouthBuild USA to establish YouthBuild AmeriCorps programs in Hollandale and Gulfport, Mississippi.

The YouthBuild National IDA Program helps YouthBuild graduate leaders build assets through a 5:1 matched contribution to buy a first home, go to college, or start a business. HHS provides $2,000 of the matched contribution, the sponsoring local YouthBuild program typically provides $1,000, and the YouthBuild Asset Trust provides $1,000 to match each graduate's $800 of savings. YouthBuild USA aims to open 1,000 IDAs for 1,000 YouthBuild graduate leaders.

U.S. Department of Agriculture
Since 2006, the YouthBuild USA Rural and Tribal Initiative was awarded four Rural Community Development Initiative (RCDI) grants totaling approximately $1.0 million from the United States Department of Agriculture.  Through the support of USDA RCDI funds, rural YouthBuild programs explore new approaches for fostering community economic development to create sustainable employment opportunities for low-income young adults.

U.S. Department of the Treasury
In 2003, the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund of the U.S. Treasury Department made a $50,000 Technical Assistance Grant to assist with the administration of the YouthBuild Loan Fund.
