Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2013 Evaluation of Programs for Tribal Youth grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number OJJDP 2013 3522) is a discretionary Department of Justice grant that supports one or more rigorous evaluation studies focused on juvenile justice and delinquency prevention in Native communities. The core purpose is to generate findings that are directly useful to tribal communities, frontline practitioners, program administrators, and policymakers. Rather than funding direct services alone, the emphasis is on learning what works, for whom, and under what conditions, so tribes and their partners can make better decisions about adopting, adapting, and strengthening approaches that promote positive youth development and reduce delinquency and victimization.
OJJDP is looking for evaluations that help identify, adapt, test, and refine promising programs, policies, and strategies for tribal youth. Applicants are encouraged to propose studies in one or more priority areas. First, OJJDP welcomes evaluations of the replication or adaptation of established evidence-based juvenile justice program models for tribal youth, including models recognized on CrimeSolutions.gov, the OJJDP Model Programs Guide, or other credible listings of effective programs. Second, OJJDP encourages evaluations of prevention or intervention programs that intentionally incorporate Native American traditional practices, reflecting tribal culture, community strengths, and local ways of healing and accountability. Third, OJJDP invites evaluations of sites funded through OJJDP initiatives such as the Tribal Youth Program and/or the Tribal Juvenile Accountability Discretionary Grants Program, with the idea that examining real-world implementation in funded sites can produce lessons that other tribes and systems can apply.
A central theme across the solicitation is building the knowledge base about tribal youth experiences, strengths, and needs, and about how tribal families and communities can design or tailor strategies that support healthy development. In practice, this means the evaluation work is expected to go beyond basic outcome tracking and instead produce actionable evidence about implementation quality, cultural fit, barriers and facilitators in tribal settings, and outcomes related to delinquency prevention and reduced victimization risk. The solicitation frames the work as practical and decision-oriented, so evaluation results can guide future program design, replication decisions, and policy choices in tribal juvenile justice contexts.
The opportunity is authorized by an Act appropriating FY 2013 funds for the Department of Justice. Awards allow up to 500,000 dollars per grant (award ceiling 500,000; no stated minimum award floor). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the financial burden on applicants and partners. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the activity category is Law, Justice, and Legal Services. The CFDA number associated with this opportunity is 16.731 (Tribal Youth Program).
Eligibility is broad and includes states and territories, units of local government, federally recognized tribal governments (as determined by the Secretary of the Interior), nonprofit and for-profit organizations (including tribal nonprofit and for-profit entities), and institutions of higher education (including tribal colleges and universities). The listing also notes eligibility for public and state controlled universities, private institutions of higher education, 501(c)(3) nonprofits, small businesses, and other for-profit organizations. A key condition for for-profit applicants is that they must agree to forgo any profit or management fee, reinforcing that the funding is intended to support public purposes rather than revenue generation. OJJDP also welcomes joint applications from two or more eligible applicants, but requires that one organization be identified as the primary applicant for official communication, award acceptance, and grant management, with additional partners identified as co-applicants.
Timing details show the solicitation was posted and created on March 1, 2013, with an original and final closing date of May 14, 2013, and an archive date of June 13, 2013.
