Description
OJP is committed to advancing work that promotes civil rights and racial equity, increases access to justice, supports crime victims and individuals impacted by the justice system, strengthens community safety and protects the public from crime and evolving threats, and builds trust between law enforcement and the community.With this solicitation, BJA provides grants to jurisdictions to improve outcomes for adults on community supervision.The Second Chance Act (SCA) of 2007 (Public Law 110-199), reauthorized by the First Step Act of 2018, provides a comprehensive response to assist in the transition individuals make from prison, jail, or juvenile residential facilities to their communities so that the transition is more successful and promotes public safety. SCA and reentry-focused grant funding is designed to help communities develop and implement comprehensive and collaborative strategies that address the challenges posed by reentry and recidivism reduction. "Reentry" is not a specific program but rather an ongoing process that starts from the moment an individual is initially incarcerated and continues throughout that individual’s transition from incarceration and reintegration into the community.The Smart Supervision Program is part of the Second Chance Act suite of program in FY 2023. This year, a range of programs for states, local government units, tribal governments, and nonprofit organizations are being competed, including: Community Reentry Improving Adult and Juvenile Crisis Stabilization and Community Reentry Improving Adult Reentry, Education, and Employment Outcomes Improving Substance Use Disorder Treatment and Recovery Outcomes for Adults in Reentry Pay for Success Smart Supervision Swift, Certain, and Fair Supervision and HOPE InstituteNot all entities are eligible for all programs. Applicants are encouraged to review each solicitation in its entirety to determine their eligibility, if it fits their proposal, and if taking advantage of another funding opportunity could further enhance a comprehensive approach to supporting individuals with substance use and other co-occurring disorders treatment and recovery support needs that have come in contact with the justice system.
