Opportunity Information: Apply for O BJA 2024 172220
The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) FY24 Justice Systems and Behavioral Health - Invited to Apply opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: O-BJA-2024-172220) is a non-competitive federal grant solicitation designed to continue and strengthen national initiatives focused on justice and behavioral health collaboration (JBH). Rather than operating as an open competition, this opportunity is structured as an invitation-only process. BJA is requesting applications from a small set of cooperative agreement recipients that have already been funded in prior years to carry out JBH-related national work. The underlying purpose is to sustain established, high-impact projects that support coordination between criminal justice systems and behavioral health providers, with the goal of improving responses to individuals with mental health needs and substance use disorders who come into contact with the justice system.
This funding will be made through a cooperative agreement, which typically means BJA expects substantial involvement in the work during the project period. In practice, cooperative agreements often include ongoing collaboration with the federal awarding agency, regular coordination on deliverables, and alignment with BJA priorities for justice and behavioral health integration. The solicitation is categorized under "Other" and lists the funding activity category as "Humanities," while using CFDA number 16.745, which is associated with justice and mental health collaboration efforts. The focus of the funded work is national in scope, but the intended beneficiaries are practitioners and communities at the state, local, tribal, and territorial levels, including criminal justice agencies and allied behavioral health partners.
Eligibility is narrowly restricted. Only organizations that received an official invitation letter from BJA specifically tied to JBH projects are allowed to apply, and BJA notes that some organizations may receive more than one invitation (suggesting multiple project components or separate workstreams). Applications will only be accepted from the invited entities named in the solicitation: The Council of State Governments Justice Center (CSG) and the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP). Although the notice indicates BJA expects to make three awards, the applicant pool remains limited to those invited recipients, reinforcing that this is intended as a continuation or renewal of prior national initiatives rather than a new, open call for proposals.
From a funding perspective, the award ceiling is listed at $2,800,000, and BJA anticipates up to three awards. The original application closing date is July 29, 2024, and the posting (creation) date is July 23, 2024, indicating a short application window consistent with a targeted, invitation-only continuation. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as BJA extending support to existing national leaders in justice and behavioral health collaboration to continue providing guidance, technical assistance, training, and other forms of support that help jurisdictions improve outcomes, reduce recidivism risk linked to untreated behavioral health needs, and strengthen cross-system coordination.Apply for O BJA 2024 172220
