1320.3(c) and includes agency requests 

or requirements that members of the 

public submit reports, keep records, or 

provide information to a third party. 

Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA 

requires federal agencies to publish a 

60-day notice in the Federal Register

intent to award a single-source

agreement held by the University of

students with intellectual and 

developmental disabilities (I/DD) away 

from guardianship to less restrictive 

decisional supports. The target audience 

for this information includes youth with 

I/DD, families, and caregivers of high 

school students with I/DD, teachers, 

education administrators, advocates, 

vocational rehabilitation counselors, 

guidance counselors, and school district 

officials. The administrative supplement 

for FY 2023 will amount to $200,000, 

bringing the total award for FY 2023 to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

supplementary funding will expand the 

Alternatives to Guardianship Youth 

Resource Center’s engagement and 

education efforts around diverting high 

school students with I/DD away from 

guardianship to less restrictive 

decisional supports. As a result of 

funding this Center, ACL expects that: 

• More students with I/DD will have 

more decisional options, such as Powers 

of Attorney, supported-decision-making, 

joint bank accounts, bill paying services, 

and medical or educational release 

forms, on completion of high school; 

• Fewer young adults with I/DD will 

be subject to guardianship; 

• The public will become more 

knowledgeable of alternatives to 

guardianship; and 

• Youth will become more 

independent by gaining job experience 

and personal responsibilities. 

This supplement will fund: 

• Support to enhance the engagement 

of youth advisory board members, 

including (1) a dedicated staff member 

for facilitation and administrative 

coordination and support and; (2) paid 

opportunities for youth advisory board 

members to be more deeply engaged in 

project activities. 

• Continued support for two 

additional staff members from grant 

partner Self-Advocates Becoming 

Empowered who have joined the youth 

ambassador training team. 

• Additional training for project staff 

and partners on allyship and 

augmentative and alternative 

communication (AAC) to support a state 

team of AAC users. 

• Support for travel for youth 

ambassadors and youth advisors to 

participate in conference presentations. 

• Supervisory support for the new 

youth trainer position that will begin 

August 2023. This youth trainer will 

join the Youth Ambassador workgroup 

and be part of the training team that 

facilitates the third cohort of youth 

ambassadors from Texas, California, and 

New York. 

• Continued enhancement to the 

project website, which includes a 

dedicated page for each of the 40+ youth 

ambassadors, youth-friendly products 

and videos, and plain language 

documents. 

The administrative supplement for FY 

2023 will amount to $200,000, bringing 

the total award for FY 2023 to $500,000.
