Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2010 Enforcing Underage Drinking Laws (EUDL) Assessment, Strategic Planning, and Implementation Initiative is a discretionary federal grant program from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). Its central purpose is to cut down underage access to alcohol and underage alcohol consumption nationwide by helping states take a more intentional, data-driven approach to enforcing underage drinking laws. The program is built around three connected phases: assessing the underage drinking problem and current enforcement environment, developing a strategic plan based on what that assessment shows, and then implementing programs and enforcement strategies that have evidence behind them or are considered promising practices. In plain terms, the grant is meant to help states move beyond scattered activities and instead build a coordinated, measurable effort that reduces alcohol availability to people under 21.
Funding under this initiative is competitively awarded, meaning eligible state agencies apply and OJJDP selects winners rather than distributing funds automatically by formula. The money is specifically intended to support governor-designated state agencies that administer the EUDL program at the state level, including agencies that may already have EUDL discretionary awards. These state-level lead agencies are expected to use the funds to strengthen enforcement and prevention strategies that address how youth obtain alcohol (for example, through retail sources, third-party provision, or social settings) and how communities and systems respond to underage drinking. The grant’s focus on research-based and promising practices signals that applicants should propose approaches supported by credible evidence, practical experience, or evaluation findings, rather than untested ideas.
Key administrative details frame how applicants would pursue the opportunity. The funding opportunity number is OJJDP 2010 2641, and the CFDA number is 16.727 (Enforcing Underage Drinking Laws Program). The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is law, justice, and legal services. The program does not require cost sharing or matching funds, which lowers the barrier for eligible state agencies to apply and implement activities without needing to contribute a required percentage of non-federal funds. The maximum award amount listed is $800,000, with no stated minimum award floor (listed as $0), which suggests OJJDP had discretion in setting award sizes up to the ceiling based on application quality, scope, and available appropriations.
The application timeline and submission method are also clearly defined. The opportunity was posted on March 31, 2010, and applications were due by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on May 18, 2010. Applications were submitted through the Office of Justice Programs Grants Management System (OJP GMS) at https://grants.ojp.usdoj.gov/. For eligibility, the announcement limits applicants to state agencies currently designated to administer the EUDL Block Grants Program, and it references a list of eligible agencies maintained at http://www.udetc.org. This restriction means local governments, nonprofits, universities, and other entities would generally not be able to apply directly; instead, they would typically participate as partners or subcontractors under the state agency that receives the award.
Finally, the initiative’s statutory authority is identified as the Department of Justice Appropriations Act, 2010 (Public Law 111-117), which is the legal basis Congress used to fund and authorize this EUDL discretionary effort for that fiscal year. For applicants needing assistance accessing the full announcement, the contact point provided is the GMS Helpdesk at 1-888-549-9901 (email contact also referenced). Overall, this grant opportunity is best understood as a targeted, state-administered investment in strengthening and coordinating underage drinking law enforcement and prevention work, with an emphasis on structured planning, evidence-informed strategies, and measurable implementation.
