About this program

The Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs made the most recent grant award under CFDA 16.821, the Juvenile Justice Reform and Reinvestment Demonstration Program, on October 1, 2016 — a decade ago. The program is a new initiative funded through the Office of Management and Budget's Partnership Fund for Program Integrity Innovation, designed to support State and local administering agencies in developing and implementing evidence-based, cost-measurement tools for juvenile justice decision-making at both service and administrative levels. No recent grant opportunities have been posted.

The portfolio shows minimal recent activity. Six total awards were made across two funding windows, four in 2012 and two in 2016, with no disbursements since October 2016. This funding pattern suggests the demonstration program has concluded or entered dormancy. Combined federal dollars obligated total $4.2 million, distributed among awards ranging from approximately $514 thousand to $744 thousand.

The program operates as a mixed assistance-type portfolio: Cooperative Agreements account for 67 percent of awards (four awards, $1.9 million obligated), and Block Grants account for 33 percent (two awards, $1.5 million obligated). Funding is concentrated within the Department of Justice ecosystem. The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, a sub-organization within the Office of Justice Programs, led by federal dollars with $1.5 million across two awards. The broader Department of Justice accounted for $1.4 million across two awards, and the Office of Justice Programs proper contributed $1.2 million across two awards.

Representative funded projects include Delaware's implementation of smart juvenile justice reform to enhance youth access to justice ($738 thousand, Block Grant, 2016), Indiana's juvenile defense improvement plan under the state reform implementation program ($741 thousand, Block Grant, 2016), Milwaukee County's juvenile justice reform and reinvestment demonstration ($725 thousand, Cooperative Agreement, 2012), and an independent evaluation of the demonstration programs ($699 thousand, Cooperative Agreement, 2012).

Given the absence of awards since 2016 and no open solicitation, this program warrants a "watch" posture rather than active pursuit at present.

Objective and description

Objective

The Juvenile Justice Reform and Reinvestment Demonstration Program is a new initiative that is made possible through the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) Partnership Fund for Program Integrity Innovation (the Partnership Fund). The demonstration program consists of discretionary, competitive grants for up to three State and/or local administering agencies to develop and implement an integrated set of evidence-based and cost-measurement tools for juvenile justice. The tools designed will enable State and/or local agencies to make more informed decisions about resources and services for justice-involved youth, both at the point of service and at the administrative level. In addition, one discretionary, competitive award will be made for an evaluation of the initiative. A discretionary award will also be made to support training and technical assistance for implementation of the initiative.
