Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2012 EUDL Discretionary Program Initiative to Reduce Underage Drinking in the Military is a discretionary federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). It is designed to address underage drinking involving active duty military personnel, specifically members of the U.S. Air Force and/or the U.S. Marine Corps who are under 21. The core purpose is to reduce both the availability of alcoholic beverages to underage service members and the actual consumption of alcohol by that group. Rather than focusing only on the military installation itself, the program emphasizes the surrounding civilian communities where alcohol is purchased, supplied, or consumed, and where local enforcement can directly influence underage access.
Funding is provided to support local civilian communities in putting proven strategies into action. The solicitation highlights the use of research-based and promising practices, meaning approaches that have evidence behind them or have shown strong results in real-world settings. The central expectation is that funded efforts will strengthen enforcement of underage drinking laws and prevent alcohol use by underage service personnel through coordinated work between civilian jurisdictions and nearby active duty bases. In practical terms, this points to partnerships among local law enforcement, prosecutors, public health or prevention organizations, state administering agencies, and military leadership or base support services, with the shared goal of reducing illegal sales, furnishing, and consumption involving under-21 service members.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates more ongoing federal involvement than a standard grant, such as coordination, guidance, or collaborative oversight during the project period. The opportunity falls under the funding activity category of Law, Justice and Legal Services and is tied to the Enforcing Underage Drinking Laws Program (CFDA 16.727). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated, which means applicants are not required to provide a specified non-federal match to receive funds.
This solicitation anticipated making up to three awards, with an award ceiling of $900,000 and an award floor of $0, indicating that awards could vary in size up to the maximum depending on the proposed project scope and available funds. The opportunity was posted on March 29, 2012, with an application deadline of May 16, 2012, and it was archived on June 15, 2012. OJJDP also noted that it could choose to make awards in future fiscal years from applications submitted under this solicitation, depending on application merit and the availability of appropriations.
Eligibility is narrowly defined. Applicants are limited to the state agency designated by each governor to administer the Enforcing Underage Drinking Laws (EUDL) Block Grants Program. In other words, individual cities, counties, nonprofits, universities, or local police departments would generally not apply directly under this solicitation unless they were operating through or under the umbrella of the designated state administering agency. A general list of eligible state agencies was referenced as being available at www.udetc.org, which would help applicants confirm the correct state entity authorized to apply.
The legal authority for the program is grounded in federal juvenile justice and appropriations law. Specifically, it is authorized by the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 1974, as amended (42 U.S.C. 5665-5667), and by the Department of Justice Appropriations Act, 2012 (Public Law 112-55). These authorities frame OJJDPs role in supporting prevention and enforcement initiatives that reduce underage drinking and related harms, and in this case they are used to support targeted work at the intersection of military communities and surrounding civilian jurisdictions.
For applicant support and solicitation-related questions, OJJDP directed prospective applicants to the Justice Information Center (JIC). The contact methods included a phone number (1-877-927-5657), email (JIC@telesishq.com), and live web chat, with standard weekday operating hours and extended hours on the solicitation close date.
