Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Evaluation and Implementation of a Program to Prevent Drug Use and Anti Social, Violent, and Criminal Behavior in Youth," was issued by the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) under Funding Opportunity Number INL 14GR0011 WHPMEXICO 04142014. It sits within INL's demand reduction programming, meaning it is focused on preventing or reducing drug use and the harms that come with it rather than on enforcement or interdiction. The core purpose is to support applied research that can be translated into real-world programming in Mexico, specifically programming that reduces the likelihood that young people will engage in illegal drug use and the violent, antisocial, and criminal behaviors that are often connected to it.
The opportunity is directly tied to Mexico's policy agenda to address the underlying drivers of violence through its multi-agency National Violence and Crime Prevention Program. INL is looking for qualified organizations to develop, implement, and rigorously evaluate a parenting model aimed at identifying and treating antisocial and criminogenic tendencies in youth. In practical terms, the project is expected to go beyond general awareness or messaging campaigns. It is meant to test a structured intervention, centered on parenting and family-based strategies, that can detect elevated risk factors (like persistent antisocial behavior patterns, impulsivity, aggression, early substance use, association with delinquent peers, or family dysfunction) and then apply evidence-informed methods to reduce those risks. The intended outcome is improved social conditions in Mexican communities that are strongly affected by violence and drug use, implying that the intervention should be designed with implementation in those high-need settings in mind.
From a funding and structure perspective, INL anticipated making a single award. The estimated total funding available was $430,000, with an award ceiling of $430,000 and an award floor of $200,000. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which typically signals that applicants are not required to contribute their own funds to be competitive, although strong in-kind contributions or partnerships can still matter in practice depending on the evaluation and implementation plan. The funding instrument is a discretionary grant, and the CFDA listing referenced is 19.704 (Counter Narcotics), which is consistent with INL's broader mandate even though the specific activity category here is demand reduction.
Eligibility was limited to certain types of educational and research institutions rather than a broad range of nonprofits or private firms. Eligible applicants included public and state-controlled institutions of higher education and private institutions of higher education. More specifically, applicants could be either (a) a U.S.-based college, university, or research institution qualifying under 26 U.S.C. 501(c)(3), or (b) a non-U.S. local educational or research organization that is legally registered in its home country. The announcement explicitly excluded commercial organizations and Public International Organizations, which narrows the field to academically oriented or research-centered entities with the capacity to run an intervention and conduct a credible evaluation.
The timeline reflects a relatively short application window. The opportunity was posted on April 15, 2014, with an original and final closing date of May 15, 2014, and it was archived on June 14, 2014. The short period between posting and closing suggests applicants needed to already have a well-formed model, established partnerships, and evaluation capability, especially given the expectation that the project would include both implementation and assessment rather than just design work.
Overall, the grant is best understood as support for a rigorous, prevention-focused parenting intervention in Mexico with an embedded evaluation component. The emphasis on "develop, implement, and evaluate" indicates INL wanted not just a program delivered, but evidence about whether it works, for whom it works, and under what conditions it can be scaled or replicated within violence-affected communities.
