Opportunity Information: Apply for SJE SJE 23 001
The Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) is offering a discretionary cooperative agreement called State Judiciary Education on Substance Use and Substance Use Disorder (Funding Opportunity Number: SJE SJE 23 001; CFDA: 95.005). The goal is to strengthen how courts and the broader justice system understand and respond to substance use and substance use disorder by grounding judicial decision-making in the science of addiction and evidence-based practices. This effort aligns with the Presidents public safety priority of helping people who have engaged in criminal activity build more stable, productive lives through proven rehabilitation approaches that can include mental health supports, substance use treatment, vocational pathways, and other services that reduce future justice involvement.
At its core, the program is designed to improve judicial training and education so that judges are better equipped to follow best practices when substance use intersects with criminal legal cases. ONDCP is aiming for practical outcomes: better adherence to evidence-based approaches among judges, lower justice system costs, reduced recidivism, and broader awareness across the judiciary of how addiction works, what effective treatment and recovery supports look like, and how criminal legal involvement can influence substance use outcomes. Rather than being a purely academic training initiative, the emphasis is on applied education that helps courts make more informed choices, especially in situations where diversion, treatment engagement, and recovery supports may be appropriate.
The recipient of the cooperative agreement is expected to build and deliver education in several formats and to multiple types of jurisdictions. This includes peer-to-peer learning models that actively engage current and former judges, so that the training reflects real courtroom realities and carries credibility within the judiciary. The program also requires the involvement of expert practitioners across addiction science, criminal justice, and healthcare, ensuring that training content is clinically accurate, aligned with research, and relevant to justice settings. Delivery is expected to include in-person training, online training options, and jurisdiction-specific technical assistance, and it must reach a mix of communities at the state, local, and Tribal levels with attention to demographic diversity across participating areas.
Training content must also incorporate ONDCP policy priorities. That means promoting a comprehensive approach to substance use and substance use disorders that spans prevention, harm reduction, treatment, and recovery, rather than focusing narrowly on enforcement or punishment. In addition, applicants must address diversion programming that is evidence-based and paired with comprehensive case management, substance use disorder treatment, recovery supports, and other services that people may need to stabilize. ONDCP is explicit that every part of the application should reflect these objectives and subject matter areas, indicating that proposals will be judged on how well they integrate these priorities into both curriculum design and program execution.
In terms of basic funding details, the awarding agency is ONDCP, and the funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically means substantial federal involvement or collaboration in implementing the project compared to a standard grant. The maximum award amount (ceiling) is 300,000 dollars, and ONDCP anticipated making one award. Eligible applicants include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions in that nonprofit category). The opportunity was posted July 17, 2023, with an original application closing date of August 31, 2023.Apply for SJE SJE 23 001
