Opportunity Summary:

The OJJDP FY 2011 National Juvenile Probation Census Project (NJPCP) grant opportunity is a discretionary federal funding solicitation from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). Its purpose is to fund the implementation, continued development, and long-term maintenance of two linked national data collection efforts that together form the NJPCP: the Census of Juvenile Probation Supervision Offices (CJPSO) and the Census of Juveniles on Probation (CJP). Through these two censuses, OJJDP aims to produce reliable national information on both (1) how many youth are under probation supervision and what their characteristics are, and (2) how juvenile probation supervision offices are structured and how they operate across the United States. The work is grounded in OJJDPs statutory authority under Sections 221-223 of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (JJDP) Act of 1974, as amended (42 U.S.C. 5631-5633), which supports national juvenile justice research and statistics activities.

At a practical level, the NJPCP is designed to fill an ongoing national information need about juvenile probation, which is one of the most common forms of juvenile justice supervision but historically has been harder to measure consistently across jurisdictions. The CJPSO component focuses on the agencies themselves, collecting information about the characteristics, policies, and practices of juvenile probation supervision offices. The CJP component focuses on the youth population under supervision, collecting count and descriptive information on juveniles on probation. Together, these complementary datasets are meant to allow OJJDP and the field to track the scope of probation supervision nationwide and to better understand how local probation systems function, which in turn supports planning, policy development, and comparisons over time.

The funding instrument for this opportunity is a cooperative agreement, meaning OJJDP would expect to have an active partnership role with the award recipient during the project period rather than issuing a hands-off grant. The solicitation lists an award ceiling of $400,000 and an award floor of $0, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The program is associated with CFDA number 16.540 (Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Allocation to States), and it is categorized under Law, Justice and Legal Services. Key timeline dates included a posted and creation date of May 16, 2011, with an application closing date of June 29, 2011, and an archive date of July 29, 2011.

Eligibility is broad and includes states (including territories), units of local government (including federally recognized tribal governments), nonprofit and for-profit organizations (including tribal nonprofit and for-profit entities), and institutions of higher education (including tribal institutions). The solicitation also notes that joint applications are welcome, as long as one organization is clearly identified as the primary applicant for official communication, the award, and financial management, with other participants listed as co-applicants. A specific condition applies to for-profit applicants: they must agree to forgo any profit or management fee under the award.

For support related to accessing the full announcement or meeting solicitation requirements, applicants were directed to the Justice Information Center, reachable by phone at 1-877-927-5657 or by email at JIC@telesishq.com, with extended hours on the closing date.
