This is a notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) for the OJJDP FY 2026 Multistate Mentoring Programs. This opportunity supports the implementation and delivery of mentoring services to youth populations that are at risk or high risk for delinquency, victimization, and going into the juvenile justice system. Mentoring services can be one-onone, group, peer, or a combination of these types.  

Funding will support: 

  • Mentoring services to youth who are 17 years old or younger at the time of admission to the program. Mentors must be an adult (age 18 or older), or in cases where peer mentoring models are being implemented, an older peer under adult supervision.  
  • Mentoring services to youth who demonstrate need but have not participated in mentoring services due to limited or lack of mentoring programs in their community or a shortage of trained and screened mentors, new mentoring matches, as well as existing mentoring matches through program completion.  

For this NOFO, youth who are at risk or high risk of delinquency are defined as youth who are in or most likely to be in the juvenile justice system because they possess certain risk factors in key life domain areas (i.e., individual, family, school, community), are already in the juvenile justice system, and/or reside in environments that have high rates of parental incarceration, community violence, drug markets, and gang concentration. 

OJJDP supports the National Mentoring Resource Center (NMRC) to provide training and technical assistance (TTA) to all OJJDP-funded grantees, including implementation of the National Quality Mentoring System. OJJDP expects funded mentoring organizations to work with the NMRC in identifying and receiving TTA. Lead grantee organizations are expected to monitor subgrantee implementation of the specific mentoring program model funded in the application to ensure subgrantee adherence to the model/curriculum and specifications. Lead grantee organizations may use a limited amount of funds to train subgrantee staff on administering the specific mentoring program model. 

This NOFO funds three separate categories for which organizations can apply based on their eligibility: 
Category 1: Mentoring Organizations (1 state) (C-OJJDP-2026-00007-PROD) The maximum amount of funding applicants can apply for is $1,000,000. Funding should be used to expand existing mentoring services to an additional state or an additional jurisdiction within the state (i.e., a new municipal area such as city, county, or region of the state) where mentoring services are already provided. The new mentoring site must implement the same mentoring program or established curriculum as the primary applicant. While funding can support existing matches, the majority of funding should be used for expansion efforts. 

Category 2: Mentoring Organizations (2 to 10 states) (C-OJJDP-2026-00008-PROD) The minimum amount of funding applicants can apply for is $1,000,000. Applicants who can demonstrate their program has the “broadest reach” across their affiliates may apply for up to $4,000,000 to support program activities. To demonstrate the “broadest reach,” applicants should address how the proposed existing mentoring approach will reach a broad population of youth. Factors that will be considered in making this determination include:  

  • Number of states where the applicant organization can show a history of providing mentoring services through subawards and the number of states where the applicant organization proposes to provide mentoring services through subawards with awarded grant funds.  
  • Number of program sites where the applicant organization can demonstrate a history of providing mentoring services through subawards and the number of program sites where the applicant organization proposes to provide mentoring services through subawards with awarded grant funds.  
  • If applicable, a description of how the applicant organization intends to expand existing mentoring services to an additional state or jurisdiction within the state where they are already providing mentoring services. The new mentoring site must implement the same mentoring program (i.e., “program x”) or established curriculum as the primary applicant.  
  • Number of youth served.  
  • Number of mentors recruited.  

Category 3: Mentoring Organizations (11 to 44 states) (C-OJJDP-2026-00009-PROD) The minimum amount of funding applicants can apply for is $2,000,000. Applicants who can demonstrate their program has the “broadest reach” across their affiliates may apply for up to $4,000,000 to support program activities. See the description listed above for guidance on how to demonstrate “broadest reach.”

Quantum High Performance Computing Validation and Verification Testbed

Limit: 1 // Tickets Available: 0 

J. Roveda (Electrical, Computer and Software Engineering)

Limiting Language
Applicant institutions are limited to no more than 1 letter of intent or proposal as the lead institution.   

There is no limitation to the number of proposals on which an institution appears as a subrecipient or for which the institution is not the lead in a multi-institution team using collaborative applications. 

Should DOE receive submissions in excess of the applicable limits, DOE reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to request additional or clarifying information to ascertain the institution’s intended submissions.  Otherwise, DOE will consider the latest received submissions to be the institution’s intended submissions. 

  • Letters of intent in excess of the limited number of submissions will be discouraged. 
  • Proposals in excess of the limited number of submissions will be declined without review. 

Executive Summary
The Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science (SC) program in Advanced Scientific Computing Research (ASCR) hereby announces interest in receiving applications to develop a concerted quantum computing verification and validation capability.  This effort should consist of interdisciplinary multi-institutional teams addressing the challenge of characterizing performance of fault-tolerant quantum computers that will accelerate scientific discovery and enable new computational workflows.  Successful efforts are expected to develop and apply a complete set of necessary tools and expertise to perform performance verification of fault tolerant quantum computers.  They should address multiple qubit technologies and be designed with enough flexibility to accommodate the rapidly evolving needs of the DOE. 

Proposed efforts should develop new and adapt existing tools for characterizing the quantum computing stack: physical hardware; quantum gates; logical quantum architecture; quantum algorithm and applications, and classical control. These teams will pave the way for the deployment of a first-of-a-kind scientifically relevant fault-tolerant quantum computing capability for the Nation, advancing DOE's mission, and ensuring America’s security, economic and scientific competitiveness, and prosperity.  Teams are encouraged to leverage the extensive scientific software, hardware, algorithms, and data resources developed under the ASCR and SC quantum-computing-related solicitations and by U.S. industry and academia.  The resulting tools, applications, and workflows may be integrated into the Genesis Mission infrastructure platform and the American Science Cloud for broad adoption by research communities. 

Proposed efforts must focus on the developing, testing, and applying algorithms, benchmarks, and software tools for real-world quantum systems.  Teams must validate their tools by demonstrating successful performance verification of the state-of-the-art quantum hardware.  Quantum hardware research and development efforts are out of scope, unless they are essential for tools development and validation.  ASCR anticipates that teams will engage in multiple quantum hardware evaluations in parallel across several qubit technologies, and the size and composition of the teams should be appropriate to meet this requirement.

Seeding Research, Networking, and Capacity- Building at Minority-Serving Institutions

Limit: Each research center may appear on one LOI/Proposal

G. Coronado (Health Equity Research Center)

Limiting Language
Centers may be included in only one application. Duplicate applications will be marked as ineligible.

Purpose
Through this CFP, RWJF will expand its efforts to transform deeply rooted beliefs about which data and research methods are valued, whose perspectives are prioritized, and which populations deserve resources. This CFP works to achieve transformation by incorporating a holistic funding approach that focuses on the infrastructure and capacity support that research centers need to meaningfully engage in research in the first place. RWJF understands that no single philanthropy can completely fill the gap left by ongoing federal funding cuts; however, this CFP demonstrates strong support for research, researchers, and research centers that are well positioned to pave the way toward a future where health is not a privilege, but a right.  

RWJF believes in health equity research that is grounded in systems thinking; supports and disseminates evidence identifying and implementing structural solutions to racial and health inequities; and increases power, representation, and agency among historically underrepresented researchers. By supporting the infrastructure and capacity-building needs of MSIs, this opportunity strengthens their ability to generate critical evidence and to cultivate transformative, actionable solutions toward health equity.  

This CFP seeks mission-aligned institutions interested in participating in cohort-style peer learning to advance their ability to engage in health equity research and apply for competitive funding opportunities in the future.
