Opportunity Summary:

The OJJDP FY 2013 National Training and Technical Assistance Center for Youth in Custody grant opportunity is a discretionary cooperative agreement issued by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) to fund the operation of a national center focused on improving how youth are detained or confined in justice settings. The core purpose is to strengthen the capacity of juvenile justice and corrections agencies and the organizations that run youth facilities by delivering practical resources, structured training, and hands-on technical assistance. The Center is meant to support the full spectrum of placements where juveniles may be held, including traditional juvenile detention centers, longer-term correctional facilities, and situations where youth are housed in adult facilities, with specific attention to the needs and vulnerabilities of young people in these environments.

The work supported through this award is rooted in the rehabilitative goals of the juvenile justice system. Rather than focusing solely on compliance or security operations, the Center is expected to help facilities and systems adopt approaches that promote youth development, safety, and better outcomes during confinement and after release. This includes providing comprehensive training and technical assistance directly to the facilities that detain or confine youth, along with support for state, local, and tribal departments of juvenile justice and corrections, service providers, and private organizations involved in operating these facilities. A key expectation is that the Center will also help expand and refresh the broader field knowledge base by identifying, updating, and sharing best practices related to the detention and confinement of juveniles, so that agencies can make decisions informed by current research and proven operational strategies.

Legally, the solicitation cites authority under Sections 221 and 223 of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDP Act), codified at 42 U.S.C. 5631 and related provisions. The funding is associated with CFDA 16.540 (Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Allocation to States), and it falls under the Law, Justice and Legal Services activity category. The opportunity was posted on March 29, 2013, with an original and final closing date of May 30, 2013, and an archive date of June 29, 2013.

Financially, the award ceiling is listed as $400,000, with no stated award floor, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically means OJJDP anticipates a more active role in guiding or collaborating on the work compared to a standard grant, often through ongoing coordination, shared planning, and programmatic oversight during implementation.

Eligibility is broad across public and private sectors, covering states (including territories), units of local government, federally recognized tribal governments, tribal organizations, nonprofits (including 501(c)(3) organizations), for-profit organizations, small businesses, and institutions of higher education (both public and private, including tribal institutions). The solicitation notes an important condition for for-profit applicants: they must agree to forgo any profit or management fee. OJJDP also encourages joint applications involving multiple eligible entities, as long as one organization is clearly designated as the primary applicant for official communications, award administration, and overall management, with other participants identified as co-applicants.

For applicant support and solicitation assistance, the announcement points applicants to the Justice Information Center (JIC), including a phone number and email contact, and notes JIC operating hours, with extended hours on the close date to help address last-minute submission or requirements questions.
