Opportunity Information: Apply for O OJJDP 2023 171815
The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), within the U.S. Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs (OJP), released a FY 2023 continuation grant opportunity focused on strengthening how communities respond to youth with problematic or illegal sexual behavior (often abbreviated as PSB). The purpose of the award is not to directly fund treatment services at multiple new sites, but to fund a single training and technical assistance (TTA) provider that can help existing, funded project sites carry out effective community-based prevention, intervention, and treatment approaches. The work is intended to support not only the youth involved, but also victims and families or caregivers, recognizing that effective responses depend on coordinated systems and informed supports around the young person.
The solicitation is framed within OJP's broader priorities, including advancing civil rights and racial equity, improving access to justice, supporting crime victims and people impacted by the justice system, strengthening community safety, protecting the public from evolving threats, and building trust between law enforcement and the community. In practice, that means the TTA provider is expected to help project sites implement strategies in ways that are fair, evidence-informed, culturally responsive, and attentive to the needs of victims while still focusing on appropriate, developmentally informed interventions for youth.
A key point in the description is that technical assistance needs may vary widely by site. Some programs may already have established models, trained staff, and interagency relationships, while others may be building capacity, refining policies, or trying to improve how partners coordinate across child welfare, juvenile justice, behavioral health, schools, advocacy services, and community providers. The funded TTA organization would be expected to tailor its support to each site rather than deliver a one-size-fits-all approach, helping programs strengthen their practices, problem-solve implementation challenges, and align their work with effective prevention and treatment principles.
Administratively, this opportunity is a continuation and is offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial federal involvement during the project period, such as collaboration, ongoing guidance, and active oversight from OJJDP. The funding opportunity number is O-OJJDP-2023-171815 and it falls under the Law, Justice and Legal Services activity category, CFDA number 16.543. The opportunity anticipated one award with an award ceiling of $1,000,000. The posting date was July 6, 2023, with an original closing date of July 12, 2023, reflecting a short application window consistent with an invited/continuation-type solicitation. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with further clarification typically provided in the full solicitation under the additional eligibility information section, but the title ("Invited to Apply") signals that it was likely limited to a specific organization or a narrow set of organizations already positioned to continue this work.
Finally, the statutory authority cited for the award is Public Law 117-328, 136 Stat. 4459, 4539, which provides the legal basis for OJJDP to make this funding available. Overall, the opportunity centers on building and maintaining high-quality, community-based responses for youth with PSB by ensuring project sites have the training, tools, and implementation support needed to deliver effective interventions and to better coordinate services for youth, victims, and families.Apply for O OJJDP 2023 171815
