Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "INL 13 GR 0020 AMESierra Leone/Nigeria 06172013" (Funding Opportunity Number INLEA INLCJ 13 008) is a discretionary grant announced by the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL). It was posted and created on June 17, 2013, and falls under the funding activity category of Law, Justice, and Legal Services, specifically tied to CFDA 19.703, Criminal Justice Systems. In practical terms, this means the funding is intended to support criminal justice system-related programming, capacity building, or related rule-of-law efforts that align with INL's overseas law enforcement and justice sector assistance mission, with the geographic focus indicated by the title as Sierra Leone and Nigeria.
From a funding standpoint, the opportunity anticipates a relatively large award, with an expected award range bounded by an award floor of $1,950,000 and an award ceiling of $2,500,000. The announcement indicates there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants would not be required to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility or competitiveness. The funding instrument is a grant, signaling a typical assistance relationship where the recipient carries out an approved program with oversight and reporting requirements rather than a procurement-style contract for goods or services.
Eligibility is aimed primarily at nonprofit organizations that hold 501(c)(3) status with the IRS and are not institutions of higher education. In addition, the opportunity lists "Others" with a note to consult the announcement's eligibility clarification, and it explicitly includes Public International Organizations (PIO) as eligible applicants. This suggests INL intended to allow a limited set of additional organizational types beyond standard U.S. nonprofits, potentially including certain international or intergovernmental entities recognized as public international organizations, depending on how the full notice defines and documents that status.
The application timeline was straightforward: the original closing date and the current closing date were both July 17, 2013, with no changes or extensions noted. The opportunity was archived on August 16, 2013, indicating it is no longer open for submission and the solicitation period ended years ago. For applicants at the time, submissions would have been routed through Grants.gov, which is reflected in the support instructions provided. The contact information points to the Grants.gov Contact Center (1-800-518-4726, 24/7 except federal holidays; support@grants.gov) for technical help accessing the full announcement or resolving electronic submission issues, rather than a program office point of contact.
Overall, this opportunity represents a single, sizable INL assistance award (or awards) intended to advance criminal justice systems work connected to Sierra Leone and Nigeria, offered to qualified nonprofit and select international organization applicants, with a one-month application window in mid-2013 and no requirement for matching funds.
