Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2011 Nonparticipating State Program Wyoming grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number OJJDP 2011 2931) is a discretionary funding competition run by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Justice Programs, specifically through the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). It exists because Wyoming elected not to participate in the standard Title II, Part B Formula Grants Program under the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 1974, as amended (JJDP Act). When a state does not participate, it becomes ineligible to receive its usual formula-based allocation under Sections 221 through 223 of the JJDP Act (42 U.S.C. 5631 through 5633). Instead of leaving those funds unused, OJJDP makes the equivalent allocation available through a competitive process within the state, which is what this “Nonparticipating State Program Wyoming” solicitation is designed to do.
Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, meaning the award is not just a pass-through grant with minimal federal involvement; cooperative agreements typically indicate that OJJDP expects to have an active role in oversight, coordination, or involvement in key aspects of the project during the award period. The funding activity category is Law, Justice and Legal Services, and the funding is associated with CFDA 16.540 (Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Allocation to States). The maximum award amount (award ceiling) listed for the opportunity is $570,000, and the award floor is $0, which signals that OJJDP did not commit to a minimum award size and that the final award amount could vary up to the ceiling depending on the selected application and the final budget negotiations.
Eligibility is restricted to organizations operating in Wyoming, and applicants must be public agencies or private nonprofit agencies, including tribal organizations. This structure reflects the intent of the solicitation: since the state government is not participating in the formula program, OJJDP is directing the state’s would-be allocation to eligible in-state entities through competition. The solicitation’s eligibility language suggests the program is meant to support juvenile justice and delinquency prevention activities that align with the purposes of the JJDP Act and OJJDP priorities, but with the funds awarded directly to qualified organizations rather than through the state’s formula grant administration.
The key dates for this opportunity are straightforward. The posting and creation date were February 9, 2011, and the application closing date was May 31, 2011 (with the original and current closing dates the same). The opportunity was later archived on October 1, 2011. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces barriers to applying for organizations that may not have access to substantial nonfederal funds.
For applicants needing the official, complete details, the opportunity points to a “Full Announcement” link for the full program narrative, requirements, and application instructions. The listed contact for help accessing the full announcement is Elissa Rumsey, Compliance Monitoring Coordinator, reachable at (202) 616-9279 (email was referenced but not provided in the text you shared).
