About this opportunity
The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), under the Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs, is seeking a training and technical assistance (TTA) provider through a cooperative agreement to support state and local grantees implementing the Residential Substance Abuse Treatment (RSAT) for State Prisoners Program. The selected provider will deliver comprehensive training and technical assistance to enhance implementation of evidence-based residential substance use treatment during incarceration and aftercare services, while maintaining and updating a centralized RSAT TTA website serving all participating grantees. Key requirements include developing strategies to support grantees in delivering effective treatment to individuals with substance use or co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders, and ensuring the website reflects evolving needs and emerging evidence-based approaches. Eligible applicants include higher education institutions (public and private), 501(c)(3) nonprofits, non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, and for-profit organizations. Evaluation criteria will be determined as outlined in the notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) and typically include eligibility, responsiveness, merit, programmatic, budget, and risk reviews. The application deadline is May 8, 2026.
Specific award values and budget ranges are not detailed in this opportunity summary, though historical RSAT formula grants to states have ranged from approximately $118,765 to $3.2 million annually. This cooperative agreement will support a four-year performance period, consistent with the standard RSAT program funding cycle. The scope of performance is nationwide, with the selected TTA provider expected to serve state and local correctional agencies, treatment providers, and related stakeholders across all participating RSAT grantee jurisdictions.
Synopsis
This NOFO will provide training and technical assistance (TTA) to state and local grantees of the Residential Substance Abuse Treatment (RSAT) for State Prisoners Program to enhance implementation of comprehensive residential substance use treatment during detention or incarceration and aftercare services to prepare individuals for successful reintegration into the community. The selected TTA provider will also maintain and update the RSAT TTA website to serve as single source of information for RSAT grantees that reflects evolving needs and emerging evidence-based approaches.
