Eligibility Applicants are limited to units of state and local government, and private, non-profit organizations with IRS 501 (c) (3) status that can demonstrate a proven track record of providing suppression, prevention, intervention, community outreach, and/or reentry and case management services to ex-offenders in the Middle District of Georgia. For those applicants submitting an application as a non-profit, verification from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) of non-profit 501 (c) (3) status signed by an authorized representative of the IRS is required. ALL non-profit applicants must submit this verification even if you are a current DOJ grantee and documentation is assumed to be on file. Purpose of the Award To provide applicants with the critical funding needed to design, develop, continue and/or implement specific components of a comprehensive PSN strategy, which includes partnerships, strategic planning and research integration, training, prevention and intervention, and accountability and data-driven efforts. Amount to be Awarded All awards are subject to the availability of appropriated funds and any modification or additional requirements that may be imposed by law. The total amount available under this solicitation is approximately $228,000. Eligible agencies located in the City of Albany, City of Columbus, and/or City of Macon are entitled to apply for funding under this solicitation knowing that CJCC and USAO may make one award for the entire available amount, or multiple awards. The successful applicant will have no more than 12 months from the date of award to expend all funds. Applicants should view this as a one-time award, and no continuation funding should be anticipated. Program Areas The project area described below consists of specific components of suppression, prevention, intervention, community policing, outreach and public awareness campaigns, reentry and prosecution. Collaboration between law enforcement, prosecutors, service providers and community organizations are crucial to the success of these programs and applications submitted under this program area will be required to show broad-based community support. Performance Monitoring and Evaluation Grant recipients will be required to collect and report quarterly and annually performance data in accordance with requirements of the Project Safe Neighborhood’s program measurements. To assist further in fulfilling CJCC’s responsibilities and commitment to fund evidence-based and data-driven projects, the applicants who receive funding under this solicitation must provide quarterly outcome data that measure the results of their work.
