Synopsis
The Family Drug Court (FDC) Program will support three categories. Category 1: Enhancing Family Drug Courts that focus on the FDC as a mechanism to keep children at home/reducing removal/separation of children from parents and implementing the Family First Prevention Services Act of 2018; Category 2: Serving Veterans Through Family Drug Courts to assist family drug courts in efforts to provide substance-abusing veteran parents with support, treatment, and access to services that will protect children; reunite families when safe to do so; and, expedite permanency; and Category 3: Establishing New Family Drug Courts to support jurisdictions that are ready to implement a family drug court.
Eligibility
Eligible applicants are limited to states, territories, State courts, local courts, units of local government, and federally recognized Indian tribal governments (as determined by the Secretary of the Interior) acting on behalf of a single jurisdiction drug court. Faith and community-based organizations, nonprofit organizations and for-profit organizations (including tribal nonprofit and for-profit organizations), and institutions of higher education (including tribal institutions of higher education) are ineligible as applicants; however, OJJDP encourages these entities to partner with eligible applicants as a community provider of services, if applicable and appropriate. This solicitation is composed of three grant categories. Applicants must clearly designate the category for which they are applying. Category 1: Enhancing Family Drug Courts Category 2: Serving Veterans Through Family Drug Courts Category 3: Establishing New Family Drug Courts Category 1: Enhancing Family Drug Courts and Category 2: Serving Veterans Through Family Drug Courts are available to jurisdictions with a fully operational family drug court. Courts applying for funding under category 1 or 2 must be fully operational for at least 1 year, as funding is intended to enhance services of existing family drug courts. Category 3: Establishing New Family Drug Courts grants are available to jurisdictions that are ready to implement a new family drug court. These grants are for jurisdictions where either no family drug court currently exists or a family drug court has been operational for less than 1 year. Jurisdictions may already have other types of drug or treatment courts (such as adult drug or mental health courts).
