FY 2020 National Community Courts Site-based and Training and Technical Assistance Initiative

This program provides funding to establish or enhance community courts and to support community court grantees and practitioners in developing effective responses to low-level, nonviolent offenses.

Through this opportunity, BJA seeks applications for funding under two categories:

• Category 1 provides funding to implement or enhance existing community court programs that address substance abuse and other issues using evidence-based principles and practices;
• Category 2 provides funding to a national-scope organization to support community court grantees and practitioners in developing effective responses to low-level, nonviolent offenses that enhance public safety, prevent crime, and address substance abuse, including opioid abuse.
