About this opportunity

This federal grant opportunity, the BJA FY24 Invited to Apply- Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) Reallocation Funds Program, is seeking applications from state, local, and tribal correctional agencies and facilities to provide information, support, and assistance to prevent, detect, and respond to sexual abuse and sexual harassment, as well as implement the National PREA Standards. The Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs' Bureau of Justice Assistance is the awarding agency. The key objectives are to decrease the likelihood that inmates, residents, and detainees are sexually victimized in confinement facilities, and to create safer work environments for staff members. The application deadline is October 22, 2024.

The funding available for this grant program is not specified. However, recent federal grant awards under the related Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program have typically ranged from $300,000 to $2 million over 2-3 year performance periods. The funded work is generally performed locally within the jurisdictions of the awarded agencies and organizations.
