OpportunityTitle: BJA FY 22 Veterans Treatment Court Risk and Need Enhancement Initiative
Description: OJP is committed to advancing work that promotes civil rights and racial equity, increases access to justice, supports crime victims and individuals impacted by the justice system, strengthens community safety and protects the public from crime and evolving threats, and builds trust between law enforcement and the community. BJA seeks applications for funding to manage the Veterans Treatment Court Risk and Need Enhancement Initiative (VTC Initiative). The VTC Initiative&#8217;s goal is to develop, and take to scale, a set of evidence-based screening and assessment tools and case planning protocols for veteran treatment courts, hereinafter referred to as the VTC Risk and Needs Assessment Tool. In 2014, the VTC Risk and Needs Assessment Tool was developed by BJA in partnership with the National Institute of Corrections (NIC) to identify the criminogenic risks and clinical needs of veterans involved in the justice system. It incorporates the latest research on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), traumatic brain injury (TBI), substance use disorders (SUDs), and other issues affecting veterans.
