Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) FY 10 Residential Substance Abuse Treatment for State Prisoners Training and Technical Assistance Program is a discretionary grant opportunity (CFDA 16.593) focused on strengthening how Residential Substance Abuse Treatment (RSAT) programs are planned, delivered, and sustained in correctional settings. The underlying RSAT statute (42 U.S.C. 3796ff et seq.) supports state and local governments in building and improving substance abuse treatment services within state, local, and tribal prisons, jails, and detention facilities, while also emphasizing the importance of community-based aftercare and reentry support once individuals return to the community. This particular funding opportunity is not for operating a single treatment program inside one facility; instead, it is intended to fund a training and technical assistance (TTA) provider that can help RSAT grantees across jurisdictions improve quality, consistency, and outcomes.
At its core, the grant supports the delivery of structured training and hands-on technical assistance to current RSAT recipients. The expectation is that the funded organization will provide practical support that helps correctional agencies and their treatment partners develop, implement, and enhance residential substance abuse treatment programs inside correctional institutions, and better connect those in-custody services to effective reentry and aftercare in the community. BJA signals a clear preference for applicants that can bring evidence-based substance use disorder treatment knowledge into correctional contexts, translate that knowledge into usable curricula for corrections and treatment professionals, and administer technical assistance in a way that is responsive to the real constraints of correctional environments.
The eligible applicant pool is intentionally broad but expertise-driven. Applicants may include for-profit (commercial) organizations, nonprofit organizations (including faith-based and community organizations), and institutions of higher education, as long as they can demonstrate meaningful experience assisting state and local correctional facilities with residential substance abuse treatment program development and delivery. BJA encourages applications from organizations with deep familiarity with evidence-based practices, correctional residential treatment models, curriculum development for practitioner audiences, and the management of technical assistance programs. Applicants are also expected to show that they can collaborate effectively with BJA, federal partners, and other BJA-supported training and technical assistance providers. Collaborative applications and consortiums are allowed, reflecting the reality that high-quality national or multi-state technical assistance often requires combined clinical, operational, and training expertise.
Funding details reflect a single-award style technical assistance project rather than multiple small subawards. The award ceiling is $900,000, with no stated award floor, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity was posted March 3, 2010, with an application closing date of April 29, 2010, and an archive date of May 29, 2010. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is Law, Justice and Legal Services.
Special conditions apply to for-profit entities: any for-profit applicant must agree to waive profit or fees for services, which effectively means the award must be used to cover allowable project costs rather than generate profit. That requirement aligns with the program’s purpose of building public-sector capacity through training and technical support rather than purchasing commercial services with built-in margins.
