Opportunity Summary:
The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) offered a discretionary grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 2010 BJS 2656) to support the design, development, and execution of the 2009 Survey of Juveniles Charged in Adult Criminal Courts. The central purpose of the project was to produce accurate, reliable statistics on how juvenile cases are processed when youth are charged as adults, using a national or sub-national sample of counties. In practical terms, the funded work would involve building a data collection approach that can consistently capture key “case processing” measures across jurisdictions, such as how cases move through adult criminal court systems and what outcomes they reach, with the goal of producing dependable statistical outputs suitable for BJS reporting and analysis.
The award was structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means BJS expected to have substantial involvement in guiding the project’s direction, deliverables, and methodological decisions rather than simply providing funds with minimal oversight. The funding activity category was Information and Statistics, and the corresponding CFDA listing was 16.734 (Special Data Collections and Statistical Studies). BJS anticipated making a single award, with an award ceiling of $500,000, and there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants did not need to provide a specified percentage of project costs from non-federal sources.
Eligibility was broad but defined. Applicants could include for-profit (commercial) organizations, nonprofit organizations, faith-based and community organizations, institutions of higher education, and consortia. The eligibility language also emphasized 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. At the same time, the solicitation highlighted a key federal fiscal restriction for for-profit entities: they could not earn profit from the award or charge a management fee for performing the work, which is a common requirement in certain Department of Justice/OJP funding streams.
Key dates for the opportunity were as follows: it was posted and created on April 2, 2010, and it closed on June 1, 2010 (with the original and current closing dates the same). The archive date was July 1, 2010. Questions about accessing the full announcement could be directed to the listed contact, Lisa Price Grear, Program Analyst, at 202-616-3561.
