Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2010 Missing and Exploited Children Program Support opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number OJJDP 2010 2574) is a discretionary federal grant offered by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). It is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected recipient would not only receive funding but would also work closely with OJJDP in carrying out the project. The purpose of the award is to identify a single provider that can support OJJDPs Missing and Exploited Children (MEC) Program by delivering a range of services and program support functions that strengthen national efforts to prevent child abduction and child exploitation.
This solicitation is rooted in long-standing federal authority aimed at protecting children. The MEC Program is authorized by the Missing Childrens Assistance Act of 1984, which established a national framework for responding to missing children cases and preventing victimization. The announcement also cites authorization under Section 405 of Title IV of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 1974, as amended. In practical terms, this framing signals that the grant is intended to reinforce the infrastructure behind national prevention and response efforts, including coordination, capacity-building, and other support activities that help agencies and partners operate more effectively.
Financially, the opportunity offered an estimated total of 350,000 dollars, with an award ceiling of 350,000 dollars, and OJJDP anticipated making one award. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the barrier for eligible organizations that may not be able to contribute non-federal funds. The funding activity category is Law, Justice and Legal Services, and the CFDA number associated with the program is 16.543 (Missing Childrens Assistance), which is commonly used for federal tracking and reporting of grant awards in this area.
Eligibility was broad and included many types of public and nonprofit entities that could plausibly operate at a national or multi-jurisdictional level. Eligible applicants included nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), private and public institutions of higher education, state governments, county and city or township governments, special district governments, independent school districts, public or Indian housing authorities, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. This range indicates OJJDP was open to selecting a provider from either the nonprofit sector or government or academic institutions, as long as the applicant could credibly deliver the level of program support required for a national program.
In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted and created on March 16, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 25, 2010. The archive date was June 24, 2010, indicating the solicitation period had concluded and the listing was subsequently archived. For applicants at the time, this roughly two-month application window would have been the period for developing a proposal, assembling documentation, and submitting required materials.
For those seeking official details beyond the summary, the announcement referenced an additional information link pointing to the full notice, and it provided a direct program contact for assistance. The listed contact was Amy Staubs, Program Manager at OJJDP, reachable by phone at 202 307 5762, with an agency contact email also provided in the original posting. This contact information suggests OJJDP expected potential applicants to ask programmatic or technical questions, especially if they had difficulty accessing the full announcement online.
Overall, this grant opportunity was designed to fund one primary provider to help OJJDP operate and strengthen its Missing and Exploited Children Program through coordinated services and support, using federal authority specifically aimed at building and sustaining a national infrastructure to prevent and respond to child abduction and exploitation.
