Opportunity Information: Apply for O BJA 2025 172586

The BJA FY25 Invited to Apply - Adult Treatment Court Discretionary Grant Program is a Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) that supports an adult treatment court effort focused on reducing substance use and preventing overdose among people involved in the criminal justice system who are considered high-risk and high-need. The core purpose is to help a treatment court program respond to opioid use, stimulant use, and other substance use by connecting participants to treatment and recovery supports, improving supervision and service coordination, and ultimately reducing harm and improving outcomes for individuals who are cycling through the justice system.

This funding opportunity is classified as a continuation grant and uses the grant funding instrument type under the Law, Justice and Legal Services activity category. The CFDA/Assistance Listing number tied to the program is 16.585. The opportunity is not open competition. Eligibility is restricted only to applicants that have received an official invitation letter from BJA for the Adult Treatment Court (ATC) program, and the NOFO states that applications will only be accepted from a single identified applicant: Reno Municipal Court's Adult Treatment Court program in Reno, Nevada. In practical terms, that means no other jurisdictions, courts, or organizations can apply unless they were specifically invited, and for this NOFO BJA is only accepting an application from the Reno Municipal Court program.

The funding details indicate a single expected award, with an award ceiling of $748,533. The opportunity was created on April 23, 2026, and the original application closing date is May 6, 2026. Because only one award is anticipated and only one applicant is eligible, this announcement functions as a targeted invitation for the Reno Municipal Court Adult Treatment Court to apply for continued support aligned with BJA's broader goals of overdose prevention, reducing substance use, and improving public safety and health outcomes through treatment court strategies.
