Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2012 NonParticipating State Program Wyoming grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number OJJDP 2012 3266) was a discretionary, competitive funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). It was created and posted on March 28, 2012, with an application deadline of May 15, 2012, and later archived on June 14, 2012. The funding was offered through a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the funded project through collaboration, monitoring, and ongoing coordination rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal interaction.
This opportunity existed because Wyoming chose not to participate in the standard Title II, Part B Formula Grants program authorized under the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 1974 (as amended). When a state does not participate, it becomes ineligible to receive its normal formula allocation directly under Sections 221 through 223 of the JJDP Act (42 U.S.C. Sections 5631 through 5633). Instead of those dollars going to a state-administered formula program, federal law allows OJJDP to competitively award what would have been the state allocation through a nonparticipating state mechanism, specifically pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 5633(d). In practical terms, the competition was designed to route Wyoming's would-be formula funds to eligible organizations within Wyoming through a federal competitive process.
The program area falls under Law, Justice and Legal Services and is tied to CFDA 16.540, Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Allocation to States. The solicitation stated there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute a formal match to receive funding. The award ceiling was listed as $570,000, with an award floor of $0, indicating that OJJDP could make an award up to that maximum amount and that the minimum award amount was not specified in the summary data.
Eligibility was limited to public and private nonprofit agencies operating in Wyoming, including tribal organizations. The announcement also noted that joint applications were welcome, meaning two or more eligible entities could apply together, as long as one organization was designated as the primary applicant for official correspondence and for award and management responsibility, with the other partners identified as co-applicants. This structure is commonly used when a project requires coordinated services across agencies, regions, or systems (for example, collaborations between nonprofit service providers, local government entities, and tribal programs), while still keeping a single entity accountable for financial and administrative compliance.
For applicants needing help with the solicitation requirements or technical access to the full announcement, the contact point listed was the Justice Information Center (JIC). Support was available by phone at 1-877-927-5657, by email at JIC@telesishq.com, or via live web chat, with standard business hours in Eastern Time and extended hours on the closing date.
