archived

The purpose of the Adult Drug Court Discretionary Grant Program (42 U.S.C. 3797u et seq.) is to provide financial and technical assistance to states, state courts, local courts, units of local government, and Indian tribal governments to develop and implement drug courts that effectively integrate evidenced-based substance abuse treatment, mandatory drug testing, sanctions and incentives, and transitional services in a judicially supervised court setting with jurisdiction over substance-abusing offenders. Selected providers under this solicitation will support the Adult Drug Court Discretionary Grant Program (42 U.S.C. 3797u et seq.) grantees as well as the adult drug court field-at-large. BJA is seeking providers for the following five categories of activities: 1. Delivery of population-specific drug court planning training (adult, veterans, and tribal). 2. Delivery of a menu of 22 approved onsite and online adult drug court curricula. 3. Provision of jurisdictional or site-specific technical assistance. 4. Provision of state-based technical assistance. 5. Management of the National Drug Court Resource Center. Providers selected for all five categories are expected to participate as part of a drug court TTA collaborative to assist state, tribal, and local justice system officials and treatment professionals to implement evidence-based drug court practices.
