BJA/SAMHSA: FY 2016 Joint Adult Drug Court Solicitation to
Enhance Services, Coordination, and Treatment<https://www.bja.gov/funding/JointDrugCourts16.pdf>
Due: May 31, 2016

BJA and SAMHSA are accepting applications for fiscal year (FY) 2016 grants to enhance court services, coordination, and evidence-based substance use disorder treatment and recovery support services of adult drug courts. The purpose of this joint initiative is to allow applicants to submit a comprehensive strategy for enhancing drug court services and substance use disorder treatment. Through this solicitation, applicants are competing for two grant awards (a grant from SAMHSA and a separate grant from BJA) for both criminal justice and substance use disorder treatment funds with one application.

Note, both BJA and SAMHSA are offering stand-alone grants for Adult Healing to Wellness Courts. You can apply to either of those solicitation (both due April 4th), and to this solicitation. But only one will be awarded to fund the same Healing to Wellness Court.

BJA and SAMHSA provide drug court applicants the flexibility to identify the most appropriate adult court (service/docket) model on which to base the drug court in order to accommodate the needs and available resources of that jurisdiction, so long as the model conforms to the key drug court components and evidence-based principles and practices for substance use disorder treatment, which describe the basic elements that define drug courts. NADCP’s newly released drug court standards provide specific evidence-based practices, policies and programs that when implemented, ensure conformity with the 10 key components.
