AI Contract Overview
The funding opportunity aims to expand the implementation of evidence-based Kinship Navigator Programs (KNP) among state and tribal child welfare agencies, with a focus on replicating models rated as promising, supported, or well-supported by the Title IV-E Prevention Services Clearinghouse. Eligible applicants include state and tribal child welfare agencies, with priority given to those not currently operating a Title IV-E Kinship Navigator Program as defined in the Social Security Act. Tribal agencies may adapt approved models to align with their cultural practices and policies while preserving core program components, and tribal consortia are encouraged to apply. Organizations that are not state or tribal child welfare agencies must demonstrate formal partnerships with the designated Title IV-E agency to implement the program. Approved KNP models include Ohio’s ProtectOhio, Arizona’s Kinship Support Services, Colorado’s Kinnected, the Foster Kinship Navigator Program, 30 Days to Family, KIN-TECH, and Washington State’s Kinship Navigator Program. Applicants must target one of two competitive priority areas: replicating an existing Clearinghouse-rated model or developing a culturally adapted version specifically for tribal communities. The solicitation, issued by the Administration for Children and Families under the Department of Health and Human Services, has a submission deadline of August 7, 2026.
