Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2011 State Juvenile Justice Formula and Block Grants TTA Program is a discretionary federal funding opportunity issued by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), focused on strengthening how states and local jurisdictions carry out juvenile justice and delinquency prevention work funded through OJJDP formula and block grant programs. The legal authority for the program comes from the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) of 1974, as amended (42 U.S.C. sections 5631 to 5633), along with the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968, as amended (42 U.S.C. 3796ee et seq.). In practical terms, the opportunity is designed to ensure that jurisdictions receiving formula and block grant dollars have access to high-quality training and technical assistance so their projects are better planned, better managed, better coordinated across agencies, and evaluated in a way that supports continuous improvement.
OJJDP planned to make an award through a cooperative agreement, meaning the recipient would not simply receive funds and operate independently, but would work in close coordination with OJJDP during implementation. The selected organization would serve as a training and technical assistance provider to state and local juvenile justice formula and block grantees and their subgrantees. The expected scope covers the full project lifecycle for delinquency prevention and juvenile justice system improvement initiatives: helping grantees plan and design projects, establish and launch operations, troubleshoot and improve ongoing programs, coordinate partners and stakeholder roles, and build or strengthen evaluation approaches to measure performance and outcomes. While the announcement does not list specific training modules in the source text provided, the core emphasis is capacity building for grant-funded juvenile justice initiatives, including improving program effectiveness and the overall system response to juvenile delinquency.
The opportunity was posted on March 30, 2011, created on May 13, 2011, and had an original application deadline of May 16, 2011, later extended to May 23, 2011. The archive date is listed as June 15, 2011. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, the activity category is Law, Justice and Legal Services, and the associated CFDA number is 16.540 (Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Allocation to States). The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $2,000,000, with no stated minimum (award floor of $0). No cost sharing or matching requirement is indicated, which typically means applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award, although standard federal grant rules and budgeting expectations would still apply.
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 eligible applicant types listed also include county governments, city or township governments, small businesses, private and public institutions of higher education, and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). The solicitation also allows joint applications from two or more eligible entities, as long as one organization is clearly identified as the primary applicant for official communication, award administration, and management responsibilities, with the others designated as co-applicants.
