Juvenile Healing to Wellness Courts grants offers funding for federally recognized tribes to develop and implement healing to wellness court programs that focus on helping tribal juveniles with substance use disorders achieve sustained recovery and avoid re-offending. Juvenile Healing to Wellness Courts use a team approach that includes judges, attorneys, probation, law enforcement, treatment providers, educational and vocational services, and other partners to provide judicial supervision, substance use treatment, case management, drug testing, and graduated incentives and sanctions.

Applicants must include a strategy to create comprehensive diversion and alternatives to incarceration programs for those impacted by the opioid epidemic.

Specific objectives and required deliverables may be found in the application instructions.

This is Purpose Area #8 of the Coordinated Tribal Assistance Solicitation (CTAS). Applicants may choose from the purpose areas and submit a single proposal.
