About this opportunity
The Bureau of Justice Assistance is soliciting cooperative agreement applications for the FY 2025 Medicaid and Corrections Program with an application due date of June 10, 2026. This program funds highly specialized technical training to correctional institutions implementing operational and system changes to improve justice and health outcomes for reentering individuals, with particular focus on reentry services that strengthen safety within correctional institutions, facilitate successful community returns from incarceration, and generate cost savings. Eligible applicants are categorized as "Other" per the federal structure. The program will provide direct support to jails and prisons, host stakeholder listening sessions, and develop technical resources. Award amounts and count are not specified in the NOFO notice. Period of performance is 36 to 48 months. The program operates under the Second Chance Act Reentry Initiative (CFDA 16.812), authorized by the Second Chance Act of 2007 and the First Step Act of 2018, which generally supports state, local, and tribal governments as well as nonprofit organizations with comprehensive reentry services including education and employment programs, substance use disorder treatment, mental health services, housing assistance, case management, peer support, and wraparound services. Recent cooperative agreements under the parent program have reached up to four million dollars over five-year periods, though typical project grants range from approximately five hundred thousand to one million dollars over three-year periods. All records must be retained for three years from the date of submission of the final expenditure report, with record retention required for federal examination and audit.
