Opportunity Summary:

The OJJDP FY2013 Model Programs Guide (MPG) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number OJJDP 2013 3566) is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention. The purpose is to strengthen and expand the content available in OJJDP's Model Programs Guide, an online resource used by juvenile justice practitioners and policymakers to find and compare evidence-based programs and practices. In practical terms, the project is about improving what MPG covers and how much credible, research-backed information it provides, so that decision makers can more confidently select interventions that are shown to work.

The central work of the award focuses on increasing the number of programs reviewed and expanding the kinds of evidence-based details included in the MPG. The solicitation makes clear that this expansion must follow the established standards, criteria, and review processes used for CrimeSolutions.gov, which is DOJ's broader evidence-based program clearinghouse. This requirement signals that the grantee is expected to operate within a rigorous, structured framework for evaluating program effectiveness and summarizing findings, rather than inventing a new or separate rating approach. It also notes that an existing Office of Justice Programs contractor will continue hosting and maintaining both the MPG website and the CrimeSolutions.gov program database, meaning the funded organization would primarily be responsible for content development and expansion rather than technical hosting or platform maintenance.

The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means substantial federal involvement is expected during implementation, such as coordination with OJJDP on deliverables, review protocols, timelines, and alignment with CrimeSolutions.gov standards. The anticipated number of awards is one, so the competition is aimed at selecting a single lead organization to carry out this national-level content expansion effort. The maximum federal funding amount listed is $400,000 (award ceiling), with no stated minimum (award floor of $0), and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement.

Eligibility is broad across public, private, and academic sectors, as long as applicants fit within the categories specified. Eligible applicants include states and territories, units of local government, federally recognized tribal governments, other tribal organizations, nonprofit and for-profit organizations (including tribal nonprofit and for-profit entities), and institutions of higher education (including tribal institutions). One notable condition is that for-profit organizations are allowed to apply but must agree to forgo any profit or management fee, reinforcing that funds should support the project work itself rather than generate earnings. OJJDP also welcomes joint applications involving multiple eligible partners, but one entity must be designated as the primary applicant for official communications, award administration, and overall management, with others listed as co-applicants.

Administratively, the opportunity falls under CFDA 16.541, Part E, described as Developing, Testing and Demonstrating Promising New Programs, and the funding activity category is Law, Justice and Legal Services. The solicitation was posted March 21, 2013, with a closing date that ultimately reflected May 21, 2013 (after an original closing date of May 20, 2013), and it was later archived June 19, 2013. The program is described as being authorized by an Act appropriating FY 2013 funds for the Department of Justice, indicating it was tied to the federal FY2013 appropriations process rather than a standalone authorization.

For applicant support, the solicitation directs questions and technical assistance needs to the Justice Information Center (JIC). The JIC can be reached by phone at 1-877-927-5657, by email at JIC@telesishq.com, or via live web chat, with operating hours during standard business times and extended hours on the solicitation close date. The full announcement is referenced via an additional information link for complete requirements, deliverables, and application instructions.
