Can we apply or be funded for 25% and target only the local juvenile court offenders?

0

No, a proposal could not apply for funding only for local offenders. However, there may be partner agencies or organizations within the proposal that only target a specific population. The language of the enabling legislation allows up to 25% of “each grant award” to be used for local offenders, but each application must propose services primarily for DJJ parolees. While a proposal may use up to 25% of its grant for services to non-parolees, it could not do so exclusively. If a service provider wanted to work only with that population, it could seek to contract or partner with an agency that was working with the parolee population to provide services to the local population as part of the total grant program. For purposes of identifying potential partnering possibilities of that sort, a list of all those who attended the RFP workshops is available on the DJJ grant website.
