Bureau of Justice Assistance

Description

OJP is committed to advancing work that promotes civil rights and racial equity, increases access to justice, supports crime victims and individuals impacted by the justice system, strengthens community safety and protects the public from crime and evolving threats, and builds trust between law enforcement and the community. With this solicitation, BJA intends to select training and technical assistance (TTA) providers to form a collaborative to support the Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant, and Substance Use site-based Program (COSSUP). Providers will support states, tribes, and units of local government to plan, develop, and implement comprehensive efforts that identify, respond to, treat, and support those impacted by the use and misuse of opioids, stimulants, and other substances. The collaborative will be responsible for supporting more than 400 active COSSUP grantees and deliver TTA to tribal, state, and local justice and substance use treatment and public health agencies, recovery support organizations nationwide, and other communities impacted by the substance use epidemic. The TTA collaborative will work closely with a TTA coordination and demonstration provider who was selected in a prior solicitation and also oversees a repository of information on the online Resource Center. These providers will offer content for this repository.
