Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) released a discretionary grant solicitation titled "Recidivism of Offenders on Federal Community Supervision" (Funding Opportunity Number: 2010 BJS 2725) to fund a single cooperative agreement focused on producing a recidivism study of people under federal community supervision. In practical terms, BJS was looking for one qualified vendor to partner closely with both BJS and the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts (AOUSC) to design and carry out a study that measures and describes reoffending outcomes for individuals supervised in the community under the federal system. The program sits within BJS's "Information and Statistics" activity area, which signals that the end product is expected to be a rigorous statistical study and related deliverables rather than direct services or programming.
The award structure emphasizes collaboration and ongoing federal involvement because the funding instrument is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant. That typically means the selected organization would not just receive funds and work independently; instead, it would coordinate its approach, methods, and deliverables with BJS and AOUSC throughout the project. The solicitation anticipated one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $250,000 and an award ceiling of $250,000 (no stated minimum award amount, with an award floor of $0). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds to be eligible or competitive. The related CFDA listing was 16.734, "Special Data Collections and Statistical Studies," reinforcing that the work is intended to support national justice statistics and research.
Eligibility was broad but defined. BJS indicated that applications were limited to for-profit (commercial) organizations, nonprofit organizations, faith-based and community organizations, institutions of higher learning, and consortia. The notice also highlighted organizations with demonstrated organizational and community-based experience working with American Indian and Alaska Native communities, including tribal for-profit and nonprofit organizations, tribal colleges and universities, and tribal consortia. An important financial compliance condition applied to for-profit applicants: consistent with Office of Justice Programs (OJP) fiscal requirements, for-profit entities could not earn profit from the award and could not charge a management fee for performing the work, meaning the budget would need to reflect allowable costs only.
The timeline for the opportunity was clearly laid out. The solicitation was posted and created on April 28, 2010, with an application closing date of June 11, 2010 (the original and current closing dates were the same). The opportunity was archived on July 11, 2010, indicating it was no longer active after that date. For applicants or interested parties who had trouble accessing the full announcement, BJS provided a direct point of contact: Lisa Price Grear, Program Analyst, reachable by phone at 202-616-3561.
Overall, this opportunity was a targeted, single-award research and statistics project intended to strengthen national understanding of recidivism among individuals on federal community supervision, carried out through a close working relationship between the selected vendor and two key federal justice entities, BJS and AOUSC.
