Agenda Analysis
Analysis
This resolution approves the second amendment to a grant contract between the Metropolitan Government and Youth Villages. The grant is intended to provide intensive, in-home services to youth and their families who are referred by or involved with the Davidson County Juvenile Court High Risk GRIP project, who are uninsured and do not qualify for other program funding.
The contract approved by Resolution No. RS2024-881 allowed the Metropolitan Government to administer federal grant funds for the improvement of the criminal justice system through the Byrne State Crisis Intervention Program. The subgrant contract with Youth Villages was approved with $48,600 in value pursuant to Resolution No. RS2025-1380. The grant term would expire on June 30, 2026.
The proposed amendment would increase grant funding by $4,500 to $53,100 and update a related exhibit.
