- What it does
- To test innovative, cost-effective, and outcome-focused strategies to achieve significant improvements in educational, employment, and other key outcomes for disconnected youth. The Departments of Education, Labor, and Health and Human Services, as well as the Corporation for National and Community Service and the Institute of Museum and Library Services enter into Performance Partnership agreements with States, localities, or tribal governments. These agreements enable these entities to blend funding they already receive from Federal discretionary programs focused on serving disconnected youth or are designed to prevent youth from disconnecting from school or work, and that provide education, training, employment, and other related services.

How to read these numbers
- Committed through this program
Money committed under this assistance listing (its CFDA program), counted in the year each action happened.
- How it's paid
Most programs pay out one way — a grant, or a direct payment to individuals; the flow bar only appears when a program genuinely mixes types.
- Some recipients aren't itemized
For entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare, the government reports one aggregate instead of naming tens of millions of people, so the recipient roster isn't part of the public record.
- Awards, counted once
An award count is the number of distinct awards with at least one action that year — each counted once, however many times it was amended.
- The colored bars
Every bar on this page splits by how the money moves:
