About this opportunity
The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) is seeking grant applications for the BJA FY24 Smart Reentry: Housing Demonstration Program. The grant aims to fund state, local, and tribal governments to enhance or implement evidence-based activities or services to improve reentry and reduce recidivism by expanding and/or increasing access to housing for people who are currently or formerly involved in the criminal justice system. Applicants will be required to screen, assess, and identify individuals for program participation prior to their release from incarceration. The program will help jurisdictions assess their reentry systems, identify strengths and gaps, and then build capacity for improved housing options for adults released from prison or jail. The application deadline is July 18, 2024.
The grant is funded under the Second Chance Act Reentry Initiative, which typically awards between $500,000 to $1.5 million over 2-4 year periods to state and local government agencies, nonprofit organizations, and universities. The places of performance may span correctional facilities, community-based organizations, and service areas across the United States where formerly incarcerated individuals are returning.
