About this opportunity
The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), under the Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs, is soliciting applications through the FY25 Strengthening Community Supervision Agency Operations Program to support state, local, and tribal community supervision agencies in developing more effective probation and parole programs. This cooperative agreement opportunity seeks to strengthen operational capacity to prevent recidivism and reduce violent crime by implementing evidence-based supervision strategies rooted in swift, certain, and fair principles. Eligible applicants include state governments, tribal governments (federally recognized), county governments, city/township governments, and other qualifying entities. The application will be evaluated based on eligibility and responsiveness, merit, programmatic, budget, and risk reviews as specified in the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). The application deadline is March 19, 2026, with the NOFO posted on February 19, 2026.
Based on historical funding patterns for similar programs under CFDA 16.828, award amounts typically range from approximately $525,000 to $900,000 per project, with project periods spanning three to four years. Funded activities may include establishing specialized caseloads, implementing behavior management systems, providing wraparound services addressing mental health and substance abuse treatment, conducting research and evaluation partnerships, and engaging in collaborative problem-solving with data-informed approaches. Performance of work is expected to occur within applicants' local jurisdictions, supporting implementation and sustainability of evidence-based community supervision models within state, county, and tribal correctional and probation departments.
