Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 13 Emergency Planning Demonstration Program was a discretionary federal grant opportunity from the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention designed to strengthen how juvenile justice residential facilities prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies. The program grew out of concerns raised by the National Commission on Children and Disasters in 2009, which urged OJJDP to evaluate whether state and local juvenile justice systems were truly ready for disasters and other major disruptions. After reviewing existing plans, OJJDP concluded that many jurisdictions were mainly focused on basic continuity of operations (how to keep the agency functioning) rather than full-spectrum emergency planning that accounts for response and recovery and the unique needs of confined youth.
To address those gaps, OJJDP had previously developed a dedicated planning guide, Emergency Planning for Juvenile Justice Residential Facilities, released in October 2011. That guide was built with input from multiple federal partners, including FEMA and the U.S. Departments of Health and Human Services and Education, along with state and local juvenile justice and emergency management practitioners. The FY 2013 demonstration program then provided funding to help states put those principles into practice by developing comprehensive, facility-relevant emergency plans that better protect children, youth, and families involved in the justice system when emergencies occur. The emphasis was not just on keeping operations running, but on planning for real-world incidents and the full lifecycle of emergency management, including preparedness, coordinated response, and post-incident recovery.
The grant was structured as a small, competitive demonstration effort intended to support emergency planning across state, local, and tribal juvenile justice residential facilities, using state agencies as the primary applicants and coordinators. The total estimated funding available was $364,000, with an expected four awards. The maximum award amount (ceiling) was $91,000, and there was no stated minimum award amount (floor listed as $0). The program did not require cost sharing or matching funds, which reduced barriers for eligible states to participate.
Eligibility was narrowly defined. Only the agency designated by a state or territory chief executive (such as a governor) to receive Title II Formula Grant funds from OJJDP could apply. For purposes of eligibility, "state" included the U.S. states as well as the District of Columbia and U.S. territories such as American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Any applicant outside that specific designation was considered ineligible under the solicitation.
Administratively, this opportunity was offered as a grant under CFDA 16.823 (Emergency Planning for Juvenile Justice Facilities) within the Law, Justice, and Legal Services funding category. It was posted on June 10, 2013, and closed on July 25, 2013, with an archive date of August 24, 2013. The program was authorized under 42 USC 5631. For support related to the solicitation process and access issues, OJJDP directed applicants to the Justice Information Center (JIC) for assistance by phone, email, or web chat during specified business hours.
