Opportunity Information: Apply for O OJJDP 2022 171419
This grant opportunity, titled "OJJDP FY 2022 Invited to Apply - Administrative Adjustment to Previously Funded Award (OJJDP FY 2021 Strategies To Support Children Exposed to Violence)," is a discretionary funding action from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). It is not framed as an open competition for the broader public. Instead, it is an invitation-only opportunity intended to make an administrative adjustment to a prior award under the FY 2021 initiative focused on strategies to support children exposed to violence. In practical terms, the purpose is typically to modify an existing, previously funded project rather than to launch a brand-new program cycle with multiple new awardees.
The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number "O-OJJDP-2022-171419" and falls within the Law, Justice and Legal Services funding activity category. The assistance listing associated with it is CFDA 16.818, which corresponds to OJJDP programming. The funding instrument is a grant, and the category is discretionary, meaning OJJDP has programmatic discretion in making and administering the award within the boundaries of the authorizing statutes, appropriations language, and applicable DOJ grant regulations and policies.
Eligibility is described as "Others," with a note directing readers to additional eligibility information in the full solicitation materials. Because this is an "Invited to Apply" administrative adjustment, that eligibility label generally signals that only the specific entity or entities identified in the Office of Justice Programs (OJP) invitation letter are expected to apply. This structure is common when an agency is updating the amount, scope, or timeframe of an existing award, or when it needs to correct, supplement, or realign the administrative details of a previously issued grant to meet program needs or appropriations requirements.
Funding details indicate an award ceiling of $926,299 and an expectation of a single award. That aligns with the administrative-adjustment nature of the announcement: one recipient, one project, and a defined maximum additional amount associated with the adjustment. The posting was created on August 9, 2022, with an original closing date of August 16, 2022, which is a short turnaround window consistent with invite-only actions where the applicant is already identified and the application is largely a formal step to process the modification.
The program description provided in the posting is brief and repeatedly directs interested parties to the OJP Invitation Letter for program-specific information. That means the substantive details that would normally appear in a full solicitation (such as goals, required activities, deliverables, performance measures, budget instructions, and reporting requirements) are likely contained in that invitation letter rather than in the public synopsis. For an administrative adjustment tied to "Strategies To Support Children Exposed to Violence," the underlying effort typically relates to improving responses for children who have witnessed or experienced violence, which can include coordination among youth-serving systems, trauma-informed services, training and technical assistance, and strengthened community or organizational capacity. However, the exact adjustment being requested here (for example, additional funding, an extension, a scope change, or a combination) would be specified in the invitation letter referenced in the notice.
The statutory authority cited includes 34 U.S.C. 11171-11172 and the Department of Justice Appropriations Act, 2021 (Public Law 116-260, 134 Stat. 1182, 1261). These authorities collectively underpin OJJDP's ability to issue and modify awards connected to juvenile justice and youth-focused public safety initiatives, including efforts aimed at mitigating the harms of violence exposure among children and youth. In short, this opportunity functions as a targeted administrative action under existing legal and appropriations authority, designed to adjust and continue a previously funded OJJDP project rather than to solicit new applicants in a broad competitive process.Apply for O OJJDP 2022 171419
