Grant Description: SAMHSA/CSAT announces the availability of Fiscal Year 2004 grants to expand and/or enhance substance abuse treatment and related reentry services in agencies currently providing supervision of and services to sentenced juvenile and young adult offenders returning to the community from incarceration for criminal/juvenile offenses. Applicants are expected to form stakeholder partnerships that will plan, develop and provide community-based substance abuse treatment and related reentry services for the targeted populations. Because reentry transition must begin in the correctional or juvenile facility before release, funding may be used for limited activities in institutional correctional settings in addition to the expected community-based services. (Note: see Expectations section in full RFA for allowable services in incarcerated settings.) Over the past decade, awareness of the issue of the need for a continuing care system for juvenile and young adult offenders has grown as States and local communities have struggled with the increasing number of these individuals returning to the community after release from correctional confinement. Often the juvenile or adult criminal justice system has services and structures in place for these offenders at entry into the system (i.e., at pre-trial or adjudication), but there are few and fragmented services in place for these young offenders as they are released from correctional settings. Reentry into the community and reintegration into the family are risky times for these offenders and their families. The U.S. Department of Justice?s Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) indicates that in the first year following release, young offenders re-offend at a rate of sixty-three (63) percent. Substance abuse treatment for offenders in prison and in the community has been extensively studied and evaluated over the past several years, and the results are consistent and clear ? treatment works, reducing crime and recidivism. SAMHSA/CSAT recognizes the need to successfully return and reintegrate these youths into the community by providing substance abuse treatment and other related reentry services while also ensuring public safety for the community and family. This program builds on previous and ongoing SAMHSA/CSAT criminal and juvenile justice program initiatives, and builds on learning gained from these previous initiatives.
