State and Local Domestic Preparedness Technical Assistance

The Department of Justice administers the State and Local Domestic Preparedness Technical Assistance program (CFDA 16.010), which has not disbursed grants since August 2004 — over 22 years ago. The program funded fiscal year 2004 homeland security information technology and evaluation initiatives, with the most recent award activity concentrated in May and August 2004. No current or recent grant opportunities are documented.

The program's seven historical awards, totaling $4.9 million in federal dollars obligated, were structured predominantly as Cooperative Agreements (six awards, 86 percent) with a single Project Grant. Award magnitudes ranged from $200 thousand to $979,814, with most cooperative agreements between $600 thousand and $990 thousand. All awards were funded by the Department of Justice; the program shows no diversification across federal agencies.

The historical awards addressed homeland security information technology and technical assistance for state and local domestic preparedness. Representative funded activities include Cooperative Agreement 2004GRT4K001 ($979,814) and Cooperative Agreement 2004GRT4K009 ($856,700), both supporting fiscal year 2004 homeland security information technology and evaluation work with performance periods ending July 31, 2005.

The absence of grant awards over the past two decades indicates this program is either dormant or inactive. No recent solicitation activity or open funding opportunities are present in current federal grant databases. Organizations considering pursuit should verify current program status with the Department of Justice before investing in application development.
