Opportunity Information: Apply for L17AS00092
The BLM - NM Youth Conservation Project Opportunities grant (Funding Opportunity Number L17AS00092) is a discretionary federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM). It is designed to support conservation-related work on public lands in New Mexico by partnering with qualified youth conservation corps and similar organizations. The central purpose is to create hands-on, paid or supported work experiences for young people while advancing BLM land stewardship goals, with participating youth generally ranging from ages 16 to 30.
Funding is expected to be awarded through cooperative agreements, which typically means the BLM anticipates having substantial involvement in the project beyond simply providing funds (for example, collaborating on project planning, technical oversight, safety requirements, or coordination of field activities). The opportunity is categorized under Natural Resources and is listed under CFDA 15.243, which aligns it with BLM assistance programs focused on managing and improving public lands and associated resources.
The program plans to make approximately three awards, with an award ceiling of up to $1,000,000. While the notice indicates the eligibility category as "unrestricted," it is still aimed in practical terms at entities capable of operating or coordinating a youth conservation corps model and delivering conservation field projects in partnership with BLM in New Mexico. In other words, applicants would need the operational capacity to recruit, train, supervise, and support youth crews and to complete conservation tasks consistent with BLM project needs.
Key dates in the notice show the opportunity was created on May 5, 2017, with an original application closing date of July 14, 2017. Overall, the opportunity is structured to simultaneously meet two goals: providing meaningful career-development and service opportunities for youth and young adults, and accomplishing on-the-ground conservation, restoration, and public-land improvement work that benefits BLM-managed lands in New Mexico.Apply for L17AS00092
