Opportunity Information: Apply for O BJA 2024 171974
The BJA FY24 Residential Substance Abuse Treatment for State Prisoners Program (RSAT) Formula Grant Solicitation is a federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Justice Programs, Bureau of Justice Assistance. It is designed to help state correctional systems expand and strengthen residential substance use treatment for people who are detained or incarcerated and who have substance use disorders, including individuals with co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders. The overall aim is not only to increase access to effective treatment while someone is in custody, but also to reduce gaps in care as people transition back into the community, where relapse and overdose risks can be high and supportive services are often fragmented.
The solicitation emphasizes continuity of care as a core priority. Funding is intended to support treatment services delivered during incarceration or detention and to improve outcomes after release by connecting participants to community-based treatment and broad aftercare supports. In practical terms, this means states are encouraged to build or strengthen a pipeline from in-facility programming to reentry planning and post-release services, so that progress made in a structured residential setting does not end abruptly at the prison gate. The opportunity aligns with DOJ and OJP priorities that include advancing civil rights and equity, increasing access to justice, supporting people impacted by the justice system, strengthening public safety, and building trust between communities and justice institutions.
This is a formula grant program, meaning awards are distributed to eligible jurisdictions based on a formula rather than through a purely competitive selection process. Eligible applicants are state governments, reflecting the program focus on state prison populations and state-level correctional and reentry systems. The funding instrument is a grant, and the opportunity is listed under CFDA 16.593. The solicitation is categorized as "Other" in the source listing, with a funding activity category noted as Humanities, though the program itself is clearly rooted in justice, behavioral health treatment, and reentry support.
Key logistical details from the listing include an original application closing date of July 10, 2024, an award ceiling of $2,554,917, and an expected 56 awards. The opportunity number is O-BJA-2024-171974, and it was created on May 8, 2024. Taken together, these details suggest broad national distribution across states, with award sizes varying by the formula calculation and any program-specific requirements set by BJA.
At its core, the RSAT program seeks to improve individual and public safety outcomes by addressing substance use and co-occurring mental health needs among incarcerated populations, while also improving the handoff to community treatment and supportive services after release. By focusing on both in-custody treatment access and post-release continuity, the solicitation reflects an understanding that sustained recovery and reduced recidivism often depend on consistent care, stable support networks, and coordinated reentry planning.Apply for O BJA 2024 171974
