ONDCP’s Drug Court Training and Technical Assistance Cooperative Agreement supports training and technical assistance (TTA) to ensure access to evidence-based addiction treatment through drug courts, including when substance use disorder co-occurs with other mental healthconditions. ONDCP seeks to reduce drug use and its consequences through evidence-based treatment that leads to long-term recovery, and this cooperative agreement will support the President’s priorities by applying this to the criminal justice system. The purpose of this cooperative agreement is to: (1) educate, train, and produce materials to improve the implementation of evidence-based treatment to individuals with addiction, including when substance use disorder co-occurs with other mental health conditions; (2)decrease criminal justice costs and recidivism rates; and (3) improve access to evidence-based addiction treatment that includes medications for opioid use disorder through drug courts. The cooperative agreement recipient shall:• Use expert practitioners in the science of addiction and evidence-based addiction treatment, as well as integration of treatment into the criminal justice system.• Use licensed behavioral health practitioners.• Provide in-person training, online training, and jurisdiction-specific technical assistanceto a wide range of geographically distributed areas—including rural locations—at thestate, local, and tribal levels.• Ensure close alignment of all TTA materials with the Trump Administration’s policy priorities, including the 2026 National Drug Control Strategy; an evidence-based approach to treating addiction--to include FDA-approved medications for opioid use disorder--contingency management, and other evidence-based behavioral health modalities for other substance use disorders; naloxone distribution and naloxone training.• Designate and fund a research or academic organization to conduct an independent assessment of the effectiveness and impact of training and technical assistance conducted under this cooperative agreement. The independent study should involve data collectionfrom state, local, and tribal jurisdictions engaged in cooperative agreement recipient programming.

This is a notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) for the BJA FY2026 Harold Rogers Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP). This opportunity seeks to enhance the capacity of regulatory and law enforcement agencies and public health officials to collect and analyze controlled substance prescription data and other scheduled chemical products through a centralized database administered by an authorized agency. PDMPs help state and local governments to detect and prevent the diversion and abuse of pharmaceutically controlled substances such as opioids and other prescription drugs. The primary function of a PDMP is to facilitate the collection, analysis, and reporting of information on the prescribing, dispensing, and use of prescription drugs with a state, commonwealth, district, or territory. The goal of the Harold Rogers PDMP is to strengthen states’ and territories’ ability to maintain and enhance their existing PDMPs by accommodating local decision-making based on state laws and preferences and replicating promising practices. As part of supporting the enhancement of PDMPs, the Harold Rogers PDMP supports the integration of PDMP data with health information exchanges, electronic health records, or pharmacy dispensing systems, including engaging with tribal entities and rural areas where integration rates may be lower. This program helps to break the cycle of drug addiction and violence by reducing the demand, use, and the illegal trafficking of controlled substances.
