• Formula-based funding program authorized by the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act of 2022 • Purpose: To implement state-level crisis intervention court proceedings and related programs • Eligible programs include: - Extreme risk protection order programs - Mental health courts - Drug courts - Veterans treatment courts • This appears to be an ongoing formula grant program rather than a competitive bid opportunity • Technical assistance and support resources are available, including: - FAQ documentation - Program memorandum - Sample SCIP plans from other states - Grantee orientation materials - BJA SCIP technical training and assistance Note: This appears to be a formula-based funding program for state-level entities rather than a traditional competitive RFP. Organizations interested in participating should verify their eligibility as this funding appears to be directed to state government agencies implementing court-based crisis intervention programs.
