Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2010 AMBER Alert National Training and Technical Assistance Program was a discretionary U.S. Department of Justice funding opportunity, administered through the Office of Justice Programs and the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, aimed at strengthening the nation s ability to respond quickly and effectively to cases involving endangered missing and abducted children. The core purpose of the program was to expand and improve national capacity by providing coordinated training and technical assistance tied to AMBER Alert and related child recovery efforts, supporting DOJ s broader public safety mission and the protection of children.
Funding was offered through a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal government expected to have substantial involvement in guiding, coordinating, or collaborating on project activities rather than simply issuing a hands off grant. The solicitation anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of 3,150,000 and an award ceiling equal to that amount, indicating the program was designed to fund one national level entity or lead organization capable of delivering training and technical assistance across jurisdictions and stakeholder groups.
The opportunity fell under the Law, Justice and Legal Services activity category and was associated with CFDA 16.543, Missing Childrens Assistance. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, reducing barriers for eligible applicants and allowing the award to focus resources on direct program delivery and national support functions rather than requiring applicants to secure nonfederal matching funds.
Eligibility was broad and included a range of government and nongovernment entities positioned to support nationwide implementation work. Eligible applicants included state, county, city or township governments; federally recognized tribal governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education where specified). This range suggests OJJDP was open to proposals from organizations with demonstrated capacity to run large scale training programs, provide technical assistance to law enforcement and partner agencies, and coordinate across multiple jurisdictions.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number OJJDP 2010 2543 and a posting date of March 10, 2010. The original application closing date was May 10, 2010, but it was extended to May 12, 2010 due to scheduled Grants Management System upgrades occurring May 7 through May 11. The archive date was June 9, 2010, reflecting when the opportunity was formally closed out for public posting purposes. For applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, the listed program contact was Ms. Cecilia Duquela Fuentes, Program Manager, reachable at (202) 514 9372, with an agency contact email also provided in the announcement.
Overall, the solicitation reflects a targeted national investment: one sizable cooperative agreement intended to deliver AMBER Alert related training and technical assistance at scale, improve operational readiness, and help jurisdictions and partner organizations respond more effectively when a child is missing or abducted and time sensitive action is critical.
