BJA Adult Treatment Court and OJJDP Family Treatment Court

Notice of Funding Opportunity

The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) and the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), both within the Office of Justice Programs at the U.S. Department of Justice, have announced the FY25 Adult Treatment Court Program Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) and the FY25 Family Treatment Court Program NOFO, respectively.


BJA Adult Treatment Court Program

The BJA FY25 Adult Treatment Court Program supports the implementation and enhancement of adult treatment court operations. Adult treatment courts integrate substance use disorder treatment, mandatory drug testing, incentives and sanctions, and transitional services in a judicially supervised criminal court setting that has jurisdiction over individuals with substance use disorders. These courts aim to reduce recidivism and overdose fatalities while increasing access to treatment and recovery support that leads to long-term recovery.

Eligible adult treatment court types include adult drug courts, impaired driving (e.g., DWI) treatment courts, co-occurring courts, and tribal healing to wellness courts. More information on eligibility for each category can be found on pages 7-11 of the NOFO.

Applicants must complete a two-step submission process; more information is available starting on page 16 of the NOFO.
