Drug Courts - Grants and Funding

This section contains links to Federal funding opportunities.

Community Capacity Development Office: Weed and Seed
The Weed and Seed program aims to prevent, control, and reduce violent crime, drug abuse, and gang activity in targeted high-crime neighborhoods across the country. It involves a two-pronged approach: law enforcement agencies and prosecutors cooperate in "weeding out" criminals who participate in violent crime and drug abuse, attempting to prevent their return to the targeted area; and "seeding" brings human services to the area, encompassing prevention, intervention, treatment, and neighborhood revitalization.

Drug Court Discretionary Grant (DCDG) Program
The DCDG Program provides financial and technical assistance to states, state courts, local courts, units of local government, and American Indian tribal governments to develop and implement treatment drug courts that effectively integrate substance abuse treatment, mandatory drug testing, sanctions and incentives, and transitional services in a judicially supervised court setting with jurisdiction over nonviolent, substance-abusing offenders. Programs funded by DCDG are required by law to target nonviolent offenders and must implement a drug court based on 10 key components. This program supports the following drug court activity:

• Adult drug court implementation.
• Juvenile drug court implementation.
• Family drug court implementation.
• Single jurisdiction drug court enhancement.
• Statewide drug court enhancement.

Federal Register at the National Archives and Records Administration
The Federal Register is a legal newspaper published every business day by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). It contains Federal agency regulations, proposed rules and notices, and Executive orders, proclamations and other Presidential documents. The Federal Register informs citizens of their rights and obligations and provides access to a wide range of Federal benefits and opportunities for funding.

Grants.gov
The Federal Government's Grants.gov Web site is a central storehouse for information on over 1,000 grant programs and provides access to approximately $500 billion in annual awards.

Justice Assistance Grant Program
This program allows States and local governments to support a broad range of activities to prevent and control crime and to improve the criminal justice system.

Juvenile Accountability Block Grant (JABG) Program
The JABG program was created by Congress to promote greater accountability in the juvenile justice system. The law authorizes the Attorney General to provide grants to the States to strengthen policies, programs, and administrative systems that foster the creation of safe communities. The underlying supposition is that young people, their families, and the juvenile justice system must be accountable for improving the quality of life in every community.

Juvenile Drug Courts/Reclaiming Futures Program
This program supports the implementation and enhancement of juvenile and family drug courts.
