Funding will not be awarded for administrative costs, operational costs of facilities, capital costs for facilities, or salaries and benefits for coaches or instructors. Any costs for these nonallowable items will be deducted from your total request and the adjusted amount will be used in determining your final award. Funding will be allowed for a special artist, educator or coach offering a program in Juneau.
Special instructors must meet all of the following criteria: not currently on payroll of the organization, the grant funded appointment must be time limited; the instructor must work directly with youth and must have special qualifications for the program. Final determination of qualification will be at the discretion of the YAB. Facility rental for a special program is an allowable expense under the grant.
