Opportunity Information: Apply for ONDCP STATEDRUGLAW 2017
The ONDCP Model State Drug Laws grant opportunity is a discretionary federal funding announcement from the Office of National Drug Control Policy (Executive Office of the President) intended to support one national-level nonprofit organization in helping states strengthen and modernize their alcohol and drug-related laws and policies. The award is rooted in ONDCP's statutory authority under the 2006 Reauthorization Act (Public Law 109-469), which allows the Director of National Drug Control Policy to enter into an agreement with a qualified nonprofit to (1) advise states using the model state drug laws originally developed by the President's Commission on Model State Drug Laws in 1993 and (2) update those model laws and develop additional model legislation to reflect how substance use challenges and state-level responses have changed over time.
Funding is limited to a single expected award, with a ceiling of $2,500,000, covering a two-year project period anticipated to begin around July 1, 2017. Eligible applicants are nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). The overall intent is to create a centralized, expert-driven capability that can track evolving issues in substance use and policy, translate research into practical legislative options, and provide hands-on assistance to policymakers and other stakeholders who are working on drug and alcohol law reforms.
The work supported by the grant is organized around four major performance areas. First, the recipient must conduct ongoing research and analysis of state drug and alcohol laws, policies, and programs, with an emphasis on current and emerging issues. This includes establishing and documenting a clear process for deciding which model laws to develop, along with transparent criteria for prioritizing topics. This research function also supports responsive legislative and policy technical assistance, including assistance requested by members of the public and representatives of legislative or other organizations.
Second, the organization must draft, revise, and supplement model legislation. That means producing new model state drug and alcohol bills that address evolving challenges and updating existing model laws from prior iterations when they no longer reflect present-day needs, legal realities, or evidence-informed practices. The grant anticipates that model legislation will not be static; it should be revised as state experiences, drug trends, and policy approaches shift.
Third, the recipient must provide technical assistance to states and localities on request. This assistance is described as individual, off-site support and follow-up help for state and local officials, drug and alcohol professionals, behavioral health specialists, and other relevant parties. The notice allows the organization to charge a reasonable administrative fee for technical assistance, but only when requested and with a proposed fee structure and rationale provided to the requester; importantly, any fees collected do not reduce or offset the federal grant amount. ONDCP also expects technical assistance to be delivered by subject matter experts with demonstrated experience drafting model drug and alcohol laws and a strong understanding of state legislative, policy, and program priorities. The award places heavy emphasis on documentation and accountability: records of technical assistance should capture, at minimum, who received the support, what type of support was provided, recipient feedback, and the outcome or result, along with the process used to collect and report that information.
Fourth, the organization must maintain a publicly accessible, web-based Model State Drug Laws Resource Center that serves as a repository for model laws and related materials. The site is expected to host downloadable information such as studies, maps, tables, and other substance-related legal and policy resources, and to publish the recipient's research outputs online. A specific expectation is the development and dissemination of state statutes and relevant case law online to the maximum extent possible, while accounting for copyright or other rights issues; where full text cannot be posted, the organization may need to abstract or summarize relevant cases. The recipient must also create a schedule for timely distribution of state law reference documents and other materials to audiences such as state and local officials, drug and alcohol professionals, and other interested parties, ensuring the resource center is not just a static library but an active distribution and support tool.
Key administrative details include the opportunity number ONDCP STATEDRUGLAW 2017, CFDA 95.006, an original application closing date of May 31, 2017, and an activity category aligned with law, justice, and legal services. In practical terms, ONDCP is using this single, sizeable award to designate one specialized nonprofit to function as a national hub for model drug and alcohol legislation: researching trends, writing and updating model legal language, providing expert technical assistance to those implementing policy at the state and local level, and maintaining an open public platform that makes these materials easy to find and use.Apply for ONDCP STATEDRUGLAW 2017
