Opportunity Summary:
The JJ FY 13 Second Chance Act Reentry Program for Juveniles with Co Occurring Substance Abuse and Mental Health Disorders (Funding Opportunity Number OJJDP 2013 3637) was a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), under CFDA 16.812 (Second Chance Act Reentry Initiative). It was built on the Second Chance Act of 2007 (Public Law 110-199; 42 U.S.C. 3797w), which was designed to address the challenges faced by people leaving confinement and returning to their communities. In this particular solicitation, the focus was juveniles who have both substance use issues and mental health disorders while they are in secure confinement and as they transition back into the community under ongoing court supervision.
The core purpose of the program was to reduce long-term alcohol and other drug use among confined youth and to strengthen the quality and continuity of both substance use treatment and mental health services. The grant emphasized services delivered not only during confinement, but also across the reentry period through completion of juvenile court supervision, reflecting a view that treatment gains made inside facilities often erode without coordinated follow-up once a youth returns home. The solicitation defined secure confinement facilities broadly to include juvenile detention centers, juvenile correctional facilities, and staff-secure facilities, and it limited the target population to juveniles confined under juvenile court jurisdiction.
Eligibility to apply was limited to governmental entities: states (including territories) and units of local government, including federally recognized tribal governments (as determined by the Secretary of the Interior). The solicitation also allowed joint applications from multiple eligible applicants, but required that one applicant be designated as the primary accountable applicant for communication, award administration, and grant management, with the others listed as co-applicants. In addition, OJJDP noted that it could choose to make awards for applications submitted under the solicitation in future fiscal years, depending on application merit and the availability of appropriations.
Several mandatory requirements were highlighted to ensure clinical quality and system coordination. Applicants had to certify that any proposed treatment program was clinically appropriate and would provide comprehensive treatment, and they had to supply official documentation showing that all collaborating service providers met relevant licensing, accreditation, and certification requirements at the state, local, and tribal levels as applicable. There was also a mandatory coordination requirement aimed at aligning projects with statewide substance abuse systems: any applicant that was not the Single State Agency (SSA) for Substance Abuse Services had to document that the proposal was developed in consultation with the SSA. Federally recognized tribes were required to submit a Tribal Authorizing Resolution with the application.
From a funding perspective, OJJDP anticipated making about 6 awards. The maximum award amount (ceiling) was $600,000, and there was no stated minimum award amount (floor listed as $0). No cost sharing or matching requirement was listed, meaning applicants were not required to provide matching funds as a condition of eligibility. The opportunity was posted on May 10, 2013, with an original and final closing date of June 24, 2013, and it was archived on July 24, 2013.
For applicant support, the solicitation directed questions to the Justice Information Center (JIC), which provided assistance by phone, email, and web chat during standard business hours and extended hours on the closing date.
