About this opportunity
The Department of Justice Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention is soliciting applications for the FY25 Title II Formula Grants Program, a formula grant opportunity with an application due date of July 30, 2026. This opportunity is restricted to state applicants and supports planning, establishing, operating, coordinating, and evaluating juvenile justice system improvement projects directly or through grants and contracts with public and private agencies.
Eligible applicants are states. The program funds development of more effective education, training, research, prevention, diversion, treatment, and rehabilitation programs, with emphasis on compliance with core requirements including deinstitutionalization of status offenders, removal of juveniles from adult facilities, and reduction of racial and ethnic disparities in the juvenile justice system. Award amounts are determined by statutory formula; specific award amounts are provided in notification letters to applicants.
The program operates under CFDA 16.540, Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention. The Title II Formula Grants Program historically comprises 60 percent of the portfolio, typically generating over 1,000 awards annually across OJJDP and partner agencies. Recent program investments reflect priorities in youth firearm violence intervention, focused deterrence, longitudinal research on intergenerational delinquency, community-based detention diversion, Prison Rape Elimination Act compliance, and trauma-informed law enforcement training.
Award decisions are made by the Assistant Attorney General. Successful applicants must accept or decline awards within 45 days of notification. The program is subject to Executive Order 12372 intergovernmental review where states have designated a single point of contact; applicants should verify state requirements. Financial records must be retained for three years from final expenditure report submission.
