The summary of federal funding announcements brought to you by the Office of U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer is a service that aims to advise Californians of various grant opportunities offered by federal grant-making agencies. The summary for December 2009 includes 31 new or updated opportunities in the following areas:
We encourage you to visit the Grants Assistance section of Senator Boxer's website (http://boxer.enews.senate.gov/mail/util.cfm?mailaction=clickthru&gpiv=2100051321.2379357.42&gen=1&mailing_linkid=30142) to learn the latest news regarding funding opportunities offered through our nation's federal grant-making agencies, including those specific to H.R. 1, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA). To view the latest information regarding ARRA's impact in California, please visit the following website: http://boxer.enews.senate.gov/mail/util.cfm?mailaction=clickthru&gpiv=2100051321.2379357.42&gen=1&mailing_linkid=30143
With the increased interest in federal grants, some constituents may have seen or heard media advertisements claiming federal grants are available to help them. However, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the nation's consumer protection agency, cautions grantseekers that these "money for nothing" grant offers are often misleading and cautions consumers to be aware of paying "processing fees" for information that is available free to the public. To learn more about possible grant scams, please visit the following website: http://boxer.enews.senate.gov/mail/util.cfm?mailaction=clickthru&gpiv=2100051321.2379357.42&gen=1&mailing_linkid=30146
Since not all federal grant-making agencies list grant opportunities each month, constituents are encouraged to visit grants.gov, the federal grants web site that allows users to electronically find and apply for current competitive grant opportunities from all 26 federal grant-making agencies. In addition, users may sign up for email updates to receive new grant postings via email as soon as they become available.
Guide deadlines and guidelines may change. Please check with the awarding agency before applying.

It is hard to make a change in other people’s lives when you are the exact opposite of what you would like them to be. How will you be of help to them if you yourself need the exact help like they do? It may be hard for you to do and in order to prevent this scenario, even volunteers have to submit themselves for a certification that they are qualified to be a skilled worker for youth intervention.
My Youth Pro gives you an opportunity to become a certified youth intervention worker who is competent in exhibiting intervention skills. As a front line youth worker, you have to possess the skills expected of you. By managing a youth intervention certification, you will have a proof that you are capable and well-trained for the job. Not only that, it will be your proof that you are capable of fulfilling the tasks given to you. With improved youth intervention skills, you are definitely fit to do the job. Your youth intervention certification will serve as an evidence that you have the qualities suitable for a youth intervention worker.
