About this opportunity
The Department of Justice's Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) is seeking applications for the FY24 Youth Justice Navigator Initiative. The goal is to support the development and implementation of a free, interactive, open-source mobile application and website that will guide youth and their families through the juvenile legal system. The tools will empower youth to be active participants in their cases by providing relevant legal knowledge. Evaluation criteria will likely focus on the functionality and user-friendliness of the digital products, as well as their potential to improve outcomes for youth in the juvenile justice system. Applications are due by August 22, 2024.
This cooperative agreement opportunity is funded through the Second Chance Act Reentry Initiative, which typically provides awards ranging from $500,000 to $1.5 million over 2-4 year periods. The digital products developed under this grant are expected to be made available nationwide to support youth and families navigating the juvenile legal system in communities across the United States.
Synopsis
With this solicitation, OJJDP seeks to support the development and implementation of a free, interactive, open-source mobile application ("app") and website that will serve as a companion to youth and families navigating the juvenile legal system. These tools will be available to youth and guide them through every point of contact with the juvenile legal system. The information communicated by the mobile application will empower youth and their families to be active participants in their juvenile legal cases by equipping them with relevant legal knowledge that is easy to digest. It will also help public defenders effectively educate and inform their clients, and their clients' families.
