Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2013 National Juvenile Justice Data Analysis Program (NJJDAP) grant opportunity was a discretionary federal funding solicitation from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). Its core purpose was to fund a single national program that would serve as a central, primary source for analyzing juvenile justice statistics and making those data accessible to the public. In practice, the award was meant to support ongoing, high-quality statistical analysis and broad dissemination so that practitioners, policymakers, researchers, and communities could better understand what is happening in juvenile justice and why.
The program emphasis was on producing and sharing timely, reliable juvenile justice information that helps the field respond to real-world needs. The solicitation highlighted several priority topic areas where strong data are essential: juvenile justice needs, youth risk behaviors, victimization, offending, and related public safety and youth development issues. By building analytical capacity and packaging findings in ways that are usable beyond technical audiences, NJJDAP was positioned as a bridge between raw data and actionable knowledge. The ultimate goal was to strengthen juvenile justice policy and practice across federal, state, tribal, and local levels by ensuring decision-makers have credible empirical evidence to guide planning, prevention strategies, system reforms, and resource allocation.
Legally, the solicitation was authorized under Sections 221 and 223 of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDP Act), cited at 42 U.S.C. 5631 5633 and 42 U.S.C. 3796ee et seq. The funding was issued as a grant under the Law, Justice and Legal Services activity category, and it was associated with CFDA number 16.541, Part E, focused on developing, testing, and demonstrating promising new programs. Although the activity described is heavily data and analysis oriented, it was framed as essential infrastructure for the juvenile justice field, enabling improvements in programs and policy through evidence.
The opportunity anticipated making one award, with an award ceiling of $800,000 and no stated award floor. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduced barriers for applicants and signaled that OJJDP intended to fully support the core national data analysis and dissemination functions through federal funds. The solicitation was posted on March 14, 2013, and applications were due by May 13, 2013, with the opportunity later archived on June 12, 2013.
Eligibility was broad across the public, nonprofit, academic, and private sectors, reflecting the national scope and technical nature of the work. Eligible applicants included states (including territories), units of local government (including counties, cities or townships, and federally recognized tribal governments), nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status, for-profit organizations, small businesses, and both public and private institutions of higher education (including tribal institutions). A notable condition applied to for-profit entities: they had to agree to forgo any profit or management fee, reinforcing that the funds were intended to pay for program work rather than generate earnings. OJJDP also welcomed joint applications from multiple eligible organizations, as long as one organization was clearly designated as the primary applicant responsible for correspondence, award receipt, and overall grant management, with the others listed as co-applicants.
For applicant support and solicitation assistance, OJJDP directed interested parties to the Justice Information Center (JIC). The solicitation provided contact options including phone, email, and live web chat, with standard business hours and extended hours on the closing date to help applicants navigate requirements and access the full announcement if they encountered technical difficulties.
In short, this grant opportunity sought to fund a single national hub that could consistently analyze juvenile justice data and translate it into public-facing information products, helping the juvenile justice community base decisions on solid evidence about youth behavior, victimization, offending patterns, and system needs.
