About this opportunity
The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), operating under the Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs, is soliciting applications for comprehensive programs addressing overdose deaths and illicit substance use involving opioids, stimulants, and other drugs. Eligible applicants include state, territorial, local, and tribal governments seeking to develop, implement, or expand integrated initiatives that combine law enforcement investigations into unlawful drug distribution, prevention programming with overdose reversal medication access, and treatment and recovery support services in community and correctional settings. The evaluation process will assess applications through eligibility and responsiveness review, merit evaluation, programmatic and budget analysis, and risk assessment, with final award decisions made by the Assistant Attorney General. The notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) will provide specific criteria for proposal selection. The application deadline is May 8, 2026, with the opportunity posted as of March 25, 2026.
Recent awards under this program have ranged from approximately $248,000 to $8.9 million per recipient, with typical project periods spanning three years. Performance of work will occur across all fifty states and tribal territories, with particular focus on urban, suburban, rural, and frontier communities experiencing elevated overdose mortality rates and substance use disorder prevalence. Successful applicants will receive official award packages through JustGrants, which must be accepted or declined within 45 days of notification, and must comply with federal record retention requirements for three years following submission of the final expenditure report.
