Opportunity Information: Apply for O BJA 2023 171527
The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), within the Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs (OJP), offered the FY 23 Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant, and Substance Use Site-based Program under its Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant, and Substance Use Program (COSSUP). This discretionary grant opportunity is designed to help jurisdictions build or strengthen coordinated, practical responses to opioid, stimulant, and other substance use issues that intersect with the criminal justice system. The overall intent is to reduce overdose deaths, improve public safety, expand access to substance use disorder (SUD) treatment and recovery supports, and ensure that responses are evidence-based, culturally relevant, and aligned with civil rights, racial equity, and community trust priorities.
At its core, the program funds site-based, comprehensive efforts that can span any intercept point of the justice system, meaning applicants can focus on prevention and early intervention before deeper justice involvement, as well as services for people during arrest and booking, court processing, incarceration, and reentry. The solicitation emphasizes cross-system planning and coordination, encouraging applicants to bring together law enforcement, courts, corrections, treatment providers, public health, community organizations, and other local partners so the response is not fragmented. The goal is to create a continuum of identification, response, treatment linkage, and ongoing support for adults impacted by substance use, along with support for affected family members when appropriate.
The opportunity also sits within a larger BJA ecosystem of behavioral health and justice initiatives. The notice highlights related programs that may complement or, depending on eligibility and fit, provide alternative funding routes for specific strategies. Examples named include the Connect and Protect Law Enforcement Behavioral Health Response Program, Justice and Mental Health Collaboration Program, Adult Treatment Court Program, Veterans Treatment Court Program, Residential Substance Use Treatment Program for State Prisoners, and Improving SUD Treatment and Recovery Outcomes for Adults in Reentry. The solicitation signals that not every organization will qualify for every program, and it encourages applicants to read the full announcements carefully and consider whether combining strategies across funding streams would create a more complete approach.
Eligibility is divided into two broad categories. Category 1 (Local Applications) includes city or township governments, county governments, other city/township/county governments in rural areas (as defined in the eligibility section of the solicitation), and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. Category 2 (State Applications) is for units of state government. The funding instrument is a grant, the opportunity is listed under CFDA 16.838, and it was posted January 26, 2023 with an original closing date of March 25, 2023. The award ceiling listed is up to $7,000,000, with the number of expected awards not specified in the provided source text.
For applicants looking for a sense of what competitive submissions have looked like in prior years, BJA points to a repository of sample successful applications on the COSSUP site. That resource is intended to help jurisdictions model strong project design, partnerships, and implementation planning consistent with the program goals.Apply for O BJA 2023 171527
