Opportunity Information: Apply for DOJ 2018 5410
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) Coordinated Tribal Assistance Solicitation (CTAS), Funding Opportunity Number DOJ 2018 5410, is a discretionary funding opportunity designed to strengthen public safety and expand victim services in tribal communities. Through this solicitation, DOJ brings multiple tribal government specific grant programs together under one coordinated application process so federally recognized tribes and tribal consortia can pursue funding in a more streamlined way. The overall goal is to help tribal communities build and carry out a comprehensive, coordinated strategy to prevent and respond to crime and victimization, rather than relying on fragmented or isolated efforts.
CTAS supports work that falls under the broad federal funding activity area of Law, Justice and Legal Services. While the notice does not list specific project models in the excerpt provided, the program purpose emphasizes improving community safety and improving services for victims, which typically includes strengthening tribal justice systems, enhancing law enforcement and prosecution capacity, improving response to violence and other crimes, and building partnerships and coordination across agencies and service providers in tribal settings. A key theme of CTAS is coordination: DOJ is signaling that it wants applications that connect the pieces of a public safety and victim services response into a coherent plan that fits local tribal priorities and conditions.
Awards may be made as grants and/or cooperative agreements. The use of cooperative agreements is important because it can indicate a more active federal role during the project period, such as additional collaboration, oversight, or technical assistance, depending on the specific program area funded. The solicitation references multiple CFDA numbers (16.582, 16.583, 16.585, 16.587, 16.596, 16.608, 16.710, 16.731), reflecting that CTAS is an umbrella solicitation that consolidates several DOJ tribal funding streams into a single coordinated solicitation rather than requiring applicants to navigate separate competitions for each program.
Eligible applicants are identified as “Others,” with clarification provided in the solicitation’s eligibility section, but the description makes clear the intended and primary applicants are federally recognized tribes and tribal consortia. In practical terms, that means a single tribe can apply, or a group of tribes working together through a consortium can apply, particularly when shared services, regional coordination, or pooled capacity makes more sense than separate efforts.
From an applicant’s perspective, this opportunity has a defined submission window and strict deadline requirements. The solicitation was made available on January 3, 2018, with an original closing date of March 20, 2018. Applications had to be submitted electronically through DOJ’s Grants Management System (GMS) at https://grants.ojp.usdoj.gov/gmsexternal/. DOJ required a two step process: first registering in GMS and then completing and submitting the application in GMS. Registration had to be completed before an application could be submitted, and the agency strongly encouraged applicants to register early, recommending no later than February 27, 2018, to allow time to resolve technical or account issues. The final application submission deadline was 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time on March 20, 2018, and late applications were not accepted.
In terms of scale, the solicitation listed an award ceiling of up to $4,000,000, indicating that larger, multi component projects could be supported depending on the program area and applicant needs. DOJ also projected a substantial number of awards, with an expected total of 207 awards, suggesting a broad national footprint and an intent to fund a wide range of tribal communities and project approaches. Overall, CTAS functions as DOJ’s primary consolidated funding vehicle for tribal public safety and victim services, offering tribes and tribal consortia a single, coordinated entry point to seek support for building safer communities and stronger services for people harmed by crime.Apply for DOJ 2018 5410
