Through this Addendum, USAID/Jamaica aims to empower high risk youth so they are more resilient to being victims and/or perpetrators of crime and violence. The activity will build relevant skills to bolster targeted youth’s ability to get more involved in their communities and improve their job readiness and skills to access gainful employment opportunities. USAID/Jamaica anticipates awarding one (1) cooperative agreement under this Addendum with a ceiling of $15 million. Issuance of this Addendum does not constitute an award or commitment on the part of the U.S. Government to make an award, nor does it commit the U.S. Government to pay for costs incurred in the preparation and submission of a Concept Note or Application(s).
