About this opportunity
Paragraph 1:
This federal grant opportunity, titled "BJA FY24 Extreme Risk Protective Order and Firearm Crisis Intervention Training and Technical Assistance Initiative- Invited to Apply," is seeking applications from qualified entities to serve as training and technical assistance (TTA) providers. The Department of Justice's Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) is the funding agency for this opportunity. The TTA providers will support grantees selected through a companion solicitation, "BJA FY 2024 Byrne State Crisis Intervention Program (SCIP) Formula Solicitation," which provides funding to states and subrecipients for the creation and/or implementation of state crisis intervention court proceedings, extreme risk protection order (ERPO) programs, and related gun violence reduction programs/initiatives. The TTA program will also support recipients of the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) program. The deadline for applications is August 5, 2024.
Paragraph 2:
The funding for this opportunity is provided through the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program, which typically awards grants ranging from $300,000 to $2 million over 2-3 year periods. The funded work is generally performed locally within the jurisdictions of the awarded agencies and organizations, which can include state/local governments, law enforcement agencies, tribal organizations, and non-profits.
Synopsis
With this solicitation, BJA seeks to fund three training and technical assistance (TTA) providers to support grantees selected through a companion solicitation titled "BJA FY 2024 Byrne State Crisis Intervention Program (SCIP) Formula Solicitation." The companion solicitation provides funding to states and subrecipients for the creation and/or implementation of state crisis intervention court proceedings, extreme risk protection order (ERPO) programs, and related gun violence reduction programs/initiatives. These programs can include efforts to leverage the capacity and expand the scope of existing problem-solving courts, such as drug courts, mental health courts, and veterans' treatment courts, to assess the risks and needs of persons with gun offenses and provide research-driven approaches to address their underlying needs to prevent further violence. In addition, this TTA program will also support recipients of the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) program, as the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act of 2022 modified the JAG program statute to include a program area for the implementation of state crisis intervention court proceedings and related programs or initiatives including, but not limited to, mental health courts, drug courts, veterans courts, and extreme risk protection order programs, and it added a reporting and evaluation component for grants awarded for crisis intervention programs or initiatives.
