Eligible applicants include 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations and higher education institutions, with application deadlines spanning March through August 2025 and projected project start dates in mid-2025.

Under the Criminal Justice Systems program, award values typically range from $35,000 for limited-scope assessments to $4 million for comprehensive multi-country initiatives, with performance periods generally spanning 12–36 months. Recipients must maintain financial records for three years and comply with 2 CFR Subpart F audit requirements. Awards are structured as either cooperative agreements or project grants. The Criminal Justice Systems program funds law enforcement training, judicial capacity-building, anti-corruption initiatives, rule of law advancement, and technical assistance in forensics and prosecutorial effectiveness across Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe.
