Opportunity Summary:

The OJJDP FY 09 Family Drug Court Training and Technical Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number OJJDP 2009 2029) is a discretionary federal grant designed to strengthen family drug courts by funding training and hands-on technical assistance. The program focuses on improving how courts and partner agencies respond when substance abuse by adults is tied to child abuse and/or neglect cases in family court. In practical terms, the goal is to help jurisdictions build, maintain, and enhance family drug court operations so they are better equipped to support recovery, improve child safety and well-being, and increase court effectiveness through coordinated, informed practice.

This funding supports work that builds the capacity of states, state courts, local courts, units of local government, and Indian tribal governments, but the entities that can apply directly for this particular competition include certain nonprofit and higher education organizations, as well as for-profit organizations (other than small businesses). Eligible applicant categories listed are nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), private institutions of higher education, and for-profit organizations other than small businesses. The expectation is that the award recipient will deliver training and technical assistance that ultimately benefits court systems and communities running, launching, or improving family drug court programs.

The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects substantial involvement during the project period, such as collaboration on priorities, deliverables, or implementation approach. The funding activity category is Law, Justice and Legal Services, and the CFDA number is 16.585 (Drug Court Discretionary Grant Program). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for this opportunity, which reduces the burden on applicants that might otherwise need to provide local matching funds.

Key funding details include an award ceiling of $400,000 and an award floor of $0, indicating that awards could vary in size up to the maximum amount depending on the proposed scope and federal funding decisions. The opportunity was posted on December 31, 2008, and the closing date was February 24, 2009 (both the original and current closing dates are the same). The listing was later archived on April 22, 2011. Statutory authority for the program is cited as the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994 (Public Law 103-322), specifically 42 U.S.C. 3797u-8, which is the legal basis authorizing OJJDP to support these drug court capacity-building efforts.
