About this opportunity

This federal grant opportunity, titled "OJJDP FY24 Community and Schools Youth Drug Prevention Program," is being offered by the Department of Justice's Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). The purpose is to support a national organization that will provide funding and training and technical assistance (TTA) to local non-profit organizations. These local organizations will be required to build community coalitions in partnership with law enforcement to educate youth in schools and extracurricular programs on drug prevention. The key objectives are to deliver substance use prevention programs in schools and implement comprehensive approaches to prevent youth substance use. The application deadline is August 12, 2024.

The funding for this opportunity is provided through the Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant, and other Substances Use Program (COSSUP), formerly known as COSSAP. The amount of the award is not specified, but previous COSSUP grants have ranged from around $300,000 to $7 million for 2-3 year project periods. The place of performance can be nationwide, as this is a national program supporting local community-based efforts.
