Posted by Youth Mental Health Collaborative on January 7, 2025

The Youth Mental Health Collaborative, led by the Schultz Family Foundation and Pinterest,  has released the 2025 request for proposals for the Youth Mental Health Corps. This request for proposals provides funding opportunities for State Service Commissions to design and implement service-to-career pathways through AmeriCorps into the behavioral health field, with Youth Mental Health Corps programs launching in fall 2026 and fall 2027. Through the Youth Mental Health Corps, young adults (ages 18–24, and up to 29 for peer recovery pathways) will receive training and earn certifications, credentials, and/or higher education credits in one of three key pathways – school-based mental health navigator, peer support/recovery navigator, community mental health navigator – all while serving as peer or near-peers to youth in schools, community-based organizations, and community health clinics. Review the following materials to learn details on eligibility, funding opportunities, and proposal instructions.

Proposals must be submitted by Friday, February 7, 2025.
