Opportunity Summary:

The BJA FY 14 Residential Substance Abuse Treatment (RSAT) for State Prisoners Program is a mandatory federal grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), under statutory authority at 42 U.S.C. 3796ff et seq. The program is designed to help state governments, working in coordination with local and tribal partners as applicable, build or strengthen residential substance use disorder treatment services within correctional and detention settings. The core focus is on developing and implementing structured treatment programming for incarcerated individuals, with the broader public safety goal of reducing substance use, improving institutional outcomes, and lowering recidivism as people return to the community.

This funding supports substance abuse treatment programs housed in state, local, and tribal correctional and detention facilities, meaning it can be used for programming that occurs while individuals are confined in prisons or jails and within other secure detention environments. Beyond in-facility programming, RSAT also allows funds to be used to create and maintain community-based aftercare services for offenders. That aftercare component is significant because it recognizes that gains made in a residential correctional treatment setting often depend on continuity of care after release, including connections to treatment providers, recovery supports, supervision requirements, and reentry services that help stabilize housing, employment, and health needs.

The opportunity is categorized under Law, Justice and Legal Services and uses the grant funding instrument type. The CFDA listing for this program is 16.593 (Residential Substance Abuse Treatment for State Prisoners). Eligible applicants are state governments, and the posting reflects that a cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so applicants should expect to contribute non-federal resources in accordance with the program rules described in the full solicitation. The maximum possible award amount listed for this competition is $948,773, with no stated minimum award floor, indicating that award sizes may vary widely based on state allocations, application scope, and the program formula or funding approach described by BJA for that fiscal year.

Key dates for this FY 2014 solicitation include a posted date of February 11, 2014, and an application closing date of April 14, 2014, with the opportunity archived on May 14, 2014. The funding opportunity number is BJA 2014 3799, and the title is "BJA FY 14 Residential Substance Abuse Treatment (RSAT) for State Prisoners Program." Applicants that needed help with submission were directed to the Grants Management System (GMS) Support Hotline at 888-549-9901 (option 3) or by email at GMS.HelpDesk@usdoj.gov, with support hours running Monday through Friday, 6:00 a.m. to midnight Eastern Time, excluding federal holidays. For the full program requirements, allowable costs, match details, and application instructions, the solicitation references an additional information link labeled "Full Announcement," which is where BJA typically outlines the specific expectations for program design, reporting, performance measures, and compliance conditions tied to DOJ grant funding.
