Opportunity Information: Apply for OJJDP 2017 11025
The OJJDP FY 2017 Second Chance Act: Implementing County and Statewide Plans To Improve Outcomes for Youth in the Juvenile Justice System grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number OJJDP 2017 11025) is a discretionary federal grant program run by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). It was created on March 24, 2017, with an application closing date of May 10, 2017. The program is designed to fund practical, on-the-ground implementation work, not the creation of a new strategy from scratch. In other words, it is meant for places that already have a statewide plan in place and are ready to put that plan into action in a way that measurably improves outcomes for young people involved in the juvenile justice system.
At its core, the opportunity supports efforts to better align juvenile justice policy, day-to-day practice, and resource allocation with research about what actually reduces reoffending and improves youth outcomes. The emphasis on alignment matters because juvenile systems often have gaps between what evidence suggests is effective (for example, targeted services matched to risk and needs, and minimizing unnecessary system involvement) and what is happening in practice (for example, inconsistent decision-making, overuse of secure placement, or limited access to effective community-based interventions). This grant aims to help states and their local partners implement reforms that make the system more consistent, more effective, and more focused on outcomes.
The funding instrument is a grant under the Law, Justice and Legal Services category, listed under CFDA 16.812. OJJDP anticipated making about three awards under this solicitation, with an award ceiling of up to $1,000,000 per award. That funding level signals that OJJDP was looking for sizeable implementation projects that could drive meaningful system change at the county level and/or across a state, rather than small pilot programs with limited reach.
Eligible applicants include state governments, county governments, and city or township governments, with additional eligibility potentially available to other types of entities depending on the solicitation's clarifying language. The title and description strongly suggest a focus on collaboration between state-level juvenile justice leadership and county or local jurisdictions, since many of the key levers in juvenile justice (intake, diversion, probation, placement decisions, service referrals, and data collection) are executed locally even when guided by statewide policy. The program is positioned to support counties and states that are implementing a coordinated plan aimed at reducing recidivism, improving public safety, and improving youth well-being by putting proven approaches into routine practice and funding structures.
Overall, this grant opportunity is best understood as implementation support for evidence-informed juvenile justice reform. It is aimed at helping jurisdictions move from planning and policy documents to real operational changes that affect how youth are assessed, supervised, served, and supported, with the end goal of fewer young people reoffending and better long-term outcomes for youth who come into contact with the juvenile justice system.Apply for OJJDP 2017 11025
