About this opportunity
The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) within the U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs is seeking applications for the FY24 Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) Formula Grant Program. This federal grant opportunity aims to support comprehensive strategies that reduce violent crime, particularly gun and gang-related violence, through collaborative efforts involving federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, and community organizations. Key activities that may be funded include targeted enforcement operations, crime prevention initiatives, community outreach programs, gang intervention efforts, and data analysis to inform evidence-based strategies. Applications are due by October 22, 2024, and will be evaluated based on their ability to address the specific violent crime challenges in each of the 94 federal judicial districts nationwide.
Recent PSN formula grant awards have ranged from approximately $50,000 to $800,000 per award, typically covering 3-year project periods. Common recipients include state public safety departments, criminal justice planning agencies, and local government entities that serve as fiscal agents for U.S. Attorney's Offices. Funded activities are implemented across all 50 states and U.S. territories, with a focus on high-crime urban areas and regions experiencing increases in violent crime.
Synopsis
With this solicitation, BJA seeks applications for funding under the Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) Formula Grant Program.

PSN is coordinated by the U.S. Attorneys' Offices (USAOs) in the 94 federal judicial districts throughout the 50 states and U.S. territories.
