The Youth Neighborhood Association Partnership Program (YNAPP) Grant provides up to $1,000 for projects that:

  • Are designed and carried out by young people with adults serving as leaders
  • Put the ideas of young people to work to address important neighborhood and community needs
  • Are neighborhood-based and led by neighborhood youth
  • Have a realistic budget and solid plans

YNAPP grants may be used for direct operations of the project or transportation costs (if needed). The majority of the grant money must be used to carry out the project.
