Opportunity Information: Apply for O OJJDP 2024 172250

The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) is offering a FY24 grant opportunity titled "OJJDP FY24 Invited to Apply - Administrative Funding Adjustment to Previously Funded Award OJJDP FY23 Title II Formula Grants Program." This is a mandatory grant action designed as an administrative funding adjustment tied to a previously funded FY23 Title II Formula Grants award. In practical terms, it is not a wide-open competition; it is an invited-to-apply action intended to modify or supplement an existing award rather than launch a brand-new program competition.

The purpose of the funding is to support a state-level effort to plan, establish, operate, coordinate, and evaluate juvenile justice projects. The activities supported under the Title II Formula Grants framework are broad and can include work carried out directly by the state or passed through via subgrants and contracts to public and private agencies. The emphasis is on strengthening the juvenile justice system through more effective education and training, research and evaluation, prevention initiatives, diversion options, treatment services, and rehabilitation programs. The overarching goal is system improvement: helping states build a more effective continuum of responses for youth, from front-end prevention and diversion through services that reduce reoffending and improve youth outcomes.

This specific opportunity is associated with Alaska, naming the Alaska Department of Family and Community Services as the intended applicant/recipient. The listing identifies the eligible applicants category as "Others," but because it is an invited-to-apply administrative adjustment connected to a previously funded award, the practical eligibility is effectively limited to the prior grantee tied to that FY23 award action. The solicitation is administered by OJJDP, which sits within the U.S. Department of Justice, and it falls under the funding activity category of Law, Justice, and Legal Services.

Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number "O OJJDP 2024 172250" and the CFDA/Assistance Listing number 16.540 (the Title II Formula Grants Program). The opportunity was created on 2024-09-06 and has an original closing date of 2024-09-16, reflecting a short turnaround typical of invited or administrative adjustment actions. OJJDP anticipates making one award under this posting, with an award ceiling of $571,500. Because this is an adjustment to a previously funded award, the ceiling indicates the maximum amount contemplated for the modification under this action rather than a competitive range across multiple recipients.

Overall, this grant opportunity is best understood as a targeted, administrative funding action to support Alaska's continued or adjusted implementation of Title II juvenile justice system improvement work. The funds are intended to help the state maintain or enhance coordinated juvenile justice programming and system functions, including planning and evaluation, and to support a spectrum of interventions such as prevention, diversion, treatment, and rehabilitation that collectively aim to improve outcomes for youth and strengthen the state juvenile justice system.
