Oklahoma accepting tribal youth program grant applications
OKLAHOMA (KXII) – Tribal youth programs can now apply for grant money from the Oklahoma Office of Juvenile Affairs.
More than $500,000 in grant money is available, in hopes of preventing delinquency among tribal youth.
The grants are intended for programs that honor indigenous traditions and work to help children in need.
A press release from the Oklahoma Office of Juvenile Affairs stated that the money is made possible through the federal Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, and the money will go to agencies that work to strengthen youth development and combat truancy, substance use and other delinquent behaviors.
Organizations can apply here.
November 8 is the final day for programs to apply for grant money.
