Description

The Iowa Department of Human Rights, Division of Criminal and Juvenile Justice Planning (CJJP) is awarded Title II funding annually from the federal Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). The majority of the funds are allocated to Juvenile Court Services in Iowa’s eight Judicial Districts using a formula based on youth population. They are used to support services for justice-involved youth.

The Iowa Juvenile Justice Advisory Council, which oversees this federally funding, has prioritized filling gaps in services for justice-involved Black girls, and has allocated $52,000 of Title II funding to be awarded through this competitive process to implement or expand services. The Council has approved funding for one year for this priority. There is no guarantee of additional/future funding.

PURPOSE

OJJDP's Formula Grants (Title II) Program supports state and local delinquency prevention and intervention efforts, and juvenile justice systems improvements. Within the official program purpose areas related to Title II, states have the opportunity to support a wide variety of programs for youth involved in the juvenile justice system.

Proposals for this funding opportunity must address justice-involved Black girls as well as the “Gender-Specific” program area. OJJDP defines Gender-Specific as “programs that address the needs of girls in or at risk of entering the juvenile justice system, including pregnant girls, young mothers, survivors of commercial sexual exploitation or domestic child sex trafficking, girls with disabilities, and girls of color, including girls who are members of an Indian Tribe.”

ELIGIBLE APPLICANTS

Awards will be made to implement services for justice-involved Black girls in communities with:
- High racial disparities locally for Black girls in juvenile justice system data.
- A lack of adequate, female and culturally-responsive programs/services.
The following entities are eligible to apply:
- City and county governments
- Public and state-controlled institutions of higher education
- Native American Tribal organizations (other than federally recognized Tribal governments)
- Native American Tribal governments (federally recognized)
- Nonprofits having a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS
- Nonprofits that do not have a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS

Questions

Submitted Date	Question	Answer
Mar 15, 2023 1:32 PM	How do we find data on "justice-involved Black girls in the identified community"? I see a need and would think there is a disproportionate amount of impact with them in our community but not sure where I would find this data or what type of data you are looking for?	It will be up to the applicants to decide what data measures they want to use because it may vary depending on what is being proposed (e.g. if someone plans to apply for something that targets substance abuse, they might use data on drug/alcohol related charges). On CJJP's "racial and ethnic disparities data" webpage (https://humanrights.iowa.gov/cjjp/data), there is a link to our DMC compliance plan that will give you an example of broad strokes data used in reporting to the feds, but we aren't putting any limitations on what data folks use to make their case. On that same page there is a link to the EZA (http://dev.ncjj.org/ojstatbb_usp/ezajcd/). It is a tool that allows you to access some relevant data. A conversation with whoever the local go-to data person at JCS is wouldn't hurt either.
