Opportunity Information: Apply for USDA NIFA EXCA 006777
The Youth Support and Internship Program (YSIP) is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) under Funding Opportunity Number USDA NIFA EXCA 006777 (CFDA 10.500). For fiscal year 2019, the program seeks proposals to operate a fully developed, coordinated national internship program. The central purpose is to place and organize college student interns who are motivated to serve National Guard and Reserve Component (RC) military families, with support spanning all phases of deployment. In practical terms, the opportunity is aimed at building and managing a structured internship pipeline at a national scale, rather than funding isolated local efforts, so that interns can be recruited, trained, matched, and deployed in a consistent and well-orchestrated way to meet the needs of these military-connected families.
Eligibility is limited to land-grant institutions, specifically the 1862, 1890, and 1994 land-grant universities. These are the only entities permitted to apply directly for the award. However, the selected award recipient is allowed to issue subawards to other organizations that are not themselves eligible applicants, as long as those partners are necessary to carry out the project. This structure supports collaboration, for example by allowing the lead land-grant institution to work with military family support organizations, community partners, or other specialized groups, while keeping the primary grant accountability with an eligible land-grant institution.
The opportunity was created on June 20, 2019, with an original application closing date of July 25, 2019. It is categorized as an agriculture-related funding activity through NIFA (even though the program focus is primarily youth and family support), and it uses the grant funding instrument. The publicly provided summary does not specify an award ceiling or the expected number of awards, indicating those details were either not set in the excerpted record or provided elsewhere in the full announcement. Overall, YSIP is designed to support a nationally coordinated internship program that connects college students to meaningful service work focused on the unique challenges faced by National Guard and Reserve families before, during, and after deployment.Apply for USDA NIFA EXCA 006777
