This discretionary grant opportunity requires cost-sharing or matching from applicants, who must be nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status. The program expects to make approximately 17 awards with an individual ceiling of $1,200,000 out of an estimated total program funding of $16,800,000. Applications must be submitted by September 28, 2026, and inquiries can be directed to the OJP Response Center at OJP.ResponseCenter@usdoj.gov.
