Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 09 Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force Program Expansion New York and Texas is a discretionary federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), designed to strengthen and grow law enforcement and prosecutorial capacity to fight technology-facilitated child exploitation. The program is grounded in the Protect Our Children Act of 2008 (Public Law 110-401) and aligns with authorities under the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (42 U.S.C. 5775-5777). In practical terms, the opportunity focuses on helping agencies build more effective responses to two core problem areas: online enticement of children by sexual predators and child pornography cases. It supports the broader ICAC model in which specialized task forces operate not as isolated units, but as part of a coordinated national network that works to prevent, interdict, and investigate Internet crimes against children.
This particular solicitation targets expansion activity specifically within certain federal judicial districts in New York and Texas. Eligibility is limited to state and local law enforcement agencies and prosecutorial agencies located within the Eastern or Southern Federal Judicial Districts of New York, or the Eastern or Southern Federal Judicial Districts of Texas. Applications from jurisdictions outside those district boundaries are explicitly not accepted. While the eligibility line item in the source data is labeled broadly as "Others," the controlling eligibility rule is the district-based restriction for qualifying state and local law enforcement and prosecution entities.
Awards are issued as cooperative agreements rather than standard grants, which typically signals a closer working relationship and more substantial federal involvement in the implementation, monitoring, or strategic direction of the funded project. The solicitation lists an award ceiling of $500,000 and an award floor of $0, indicating that awards could vary widely in size up to the maximum amount depending on the proposed project scope and OJJDP decisions. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award.
The opportunity falls under the funding activity category of Law, Justice and Legal Services and is associated with CFDA number 16.543, Missing Children’s Assistance. The funding opportunity number is OJJDP 2009 2190, and it was originally posted on April 20, 2009, with an application closing date of June 2, 2009. Although the record shows an archive date of November 6, 2011, the operational application window for this solicitation was tied to the June 2009 deadline.
Applications had to be submitted electronically through the Office of Justice Programs (OJP) Grants Management System (GMS) at https://grants.ojp.usdoj.gov/. The announcement also provided technical assistance through the GMS Support Hotline at 1-888-549-9901 (option 3), with hours listed as Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time. For programmatic questions or access issues related to the full announcement, OJJDP listed two program manager contacts: Christopher Holloway (202-305-9838, Christopher.holloway@usdoj.gov) and Jeffrey Gersh (202-514-5535, Jeffrey.Gersh@usdoj.gov).
