NIJ Funding Opportunity: National Juvenile Justice Data Analysis Program
This is a funding opportunity from the National Institute of Justice. This includes funding from OJJDP.
NIJ seeks proposals for funding to ensure that vital statistical information is available to the field regarding juvenile risk behaviors, juvenile victimization, juvenile offending, and the juvenile justice system’s response to law-violating behavior.

Family Drug Court Program
The OJJDP Family Drug Court Program seeks to build the capacity of states, state and local courts, units of local government, and federally recognized tribal governments to sustain existing family drug courts or establish new family drug courts. Family drug courts serve parents who require treatment for a substance abuse disorder and who are involved with the child welfare system as a result of child abuse, neglect, or other parenting issues. |
Juvenile Drug Treatment Court Program
The purpose of this solicitation is to provide support to juvenile courts that intend to establish a new JDTC or to enhance existing JDTCs. This program is authorized by 34 U.S.C. 10611 et seq., which requires that any drug treatment court that this program funds prohibit participation by violent offenders. |
Supporting Victims of Gang Violence Grant Program
This program supports the efforts of eligible applicant organizations to increase the availability of direct support services for victims of gang-related violence and to develop or enhance the responses to children and youth exposed to gang-related violence in their homes, schools, and communities. |
Addressing the Training Needs of Juvenile Prosecutors
Prosecutors play a key role in ensuring an effective juvenile justice system. Nationally, there are very limited resources available to state and local juvenile prosecution offices for necessary training, education and professional development. Furthermore, a need exists for the continued development and enhancement of national, state, and local standards and technical assistance to foster continuous improvement in the field. The FY 2019 Addressing the Training Needs of Juvenile Prosecutors program is designed to fill these gaps. |
Youth Gang Suppression Implementation Grants Program
OJJDP is seeking proposals from applicant jurisdictions interested in preventing or reducing gang violence to implement suppression strategies outlined in the OJJDP Comprehensive Gang Model as part of a community- and data-driven response to gang-related crime and violence. Under this initiative, OJJDP expects successful applicants to reduce violent crime, gangs, and youth victimization and enhance public safety in communities through gang suppression efforts for gang-involved youth or youth at risk of becoming gang involved. |
Second Chance Act Youth Offender Reentry Program
The Second Chance Act Youth Offender Reentry Program supports states, local governments, and tribal governments in partnership with interested persons (including Federal corrections and supervision agencies), service providers, and nonprofit organizations to provide
comprehensive reentry services for moderate to high-risk youthful offenders before, during, and after release from confinement. |

The goal of this solicitation is to support communities in developing a wide variety of desistance or diversion strategies that are evidence-based or promising models for youth at risk of becoming gang involved or continuing in the gang lifestyle. |

This program solicitation has two categories of funding. Category 1 (program sites) will provide funding to as many as three sites for the purposes described above. Category 2 (training and technical assistance) will fund one awardee to provide training and technical assistance to the program sites selected under Category 1.
