Not a Jail: Why the YAP Scholarship Page Shows Up When You Search for Bradford County Facility

Search engines don’t always know what you meant by “facility.” If a page includes place names, organization names, or other terms that overlap with what you typed, it can show up even if it’s not about incarceration. That’s how a page about YAP’s Tom Jeffers Endowment Fund (a scholarship program) can appear when you’re trying to find information about the Bradford County Facility. The key takeaway: the YAP endowment page is about education funding, not jail operations, jail contact info, or visiting rules.

Tip: Before you rely on any result, scan the snippet and page title for clues (scholarship, endowment, application, education). If it doesn’t mention detention, inmates, visitation, or booking, it’s probably not the facility you meant.

The Tom Jeffers Endowment Fund has been around for a while: it was established in 2004, and the first scholarship was awarded in April 2007. That timeline is a quick way to tell you’re looking at a long-running education program - not a page created to share jail updates or county custody information.

So if you opened that page expecting addresses, phone numbers, visitation schedules, or inmate search details, the content will feel “wrong” because it is. The endowment materials are there to explain a scholarship and how to apply, not to provide information about a correctional facility.

This scholarship is meant for people connected to YAP services: any YAP client, former client, or their current primary caregiver can apply. The purpose is continuing education - post-secondary school or training - so it’s focused on helping eligible applicants move forward with classes, programs, or career training, not on anything related to jail custody or criminal case processes.

Note: Eligibility is tied to YAP involvement (client, former client, or current primary caregiver). If you don’t have that connection, this scholarship likely isn’t the page you need.

  • Start with the official county sheriff or county government website (look for the jail/detention section).
  • Check your state Department of Corrections site for facility listings and official references.
  • Use a reputable phone directory or other verified local listings to confirm you have the right facility.
  • Before you follow any instructions you found online, match them against official contact information (same agency name, same phone/address, same facility name).

Reminder: Non-official pages can be outdated or unrelated. Don’t treat them as authoritative for facility policies, contact details, or how to reach someone in custody.

If you did mean to find the YAP scholarship, use the current application provided on YAP’s endowment page. The Endowment Board only accepts that current version - older application copies aren’t accepted, even if you find an old PDF saved somewhere.

  1. Confirm you’re eligible - you must be a YAP client, former client, or the current primary caregiver of a client/former client, and the scholarship is for post-secondary education or training.
  2. Get the current application - open the application found on YAP’s endowment page (don’t use an older saved copy).
  3. Complete and submit it as directed - follow the instructions provided with the current application so your submission matches what the Endowment Board will accept.
