Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Calls for Proposals for New Reclaiming Futures Sites

Reclaiming Futures® changed the way juvenile courts in 10 pilot sites help teens with drug and alcohol problems. A new national dissemination program supported by a grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation will spread this proven approach to up to six additional communities through learning collaborative that shares resources, improves data collection and utilization and promotes new standards of practice. No grant funds will be awarded as part of this initiative, but successful applicants will receive a technical assistance package valued at approximately $180,000.

Applicant organizations must be based in the United States or its territories and include: juvenile courts; public and nonprofit treatment agencies; and state, local and tribal juvenile justice and alcohol and drug abuse treatment authorities. Applicants must be either public entities or nonprofit organizations that are tax-exempt under Section 501c (3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Private foundations as defined under Section 509 (a) are also eligible to apply.

Proposal Deadline: April 1, 2008
