FY27 Notice of Intent to Apply for Funding

The CACJ FY27 Notice of Intent to Apply for Funding will open Monday, June 2, 2025, and is due no later than Friday, July 11, 2025.

The fiscal year 2027 (FY27) Notice of Intent (NOI) to apply for state funds form is open to existing and potential new accountability courts. It will remain open until July 11, 2025. This NOI timeline will allow CACJ to best communicate funding requests to the Governor’s Office of Planning and Budget.

The NOI is MANDATORY for existing courts, existing courts with proposed expansions, and new accountability courts seeking to submit a grant application to CACJ for FY27 state funds. Each proposed new accountability court must first work with an existing accountability court within its circuit or county to determine if an existing court can be expanded. CACJ wants to invest in sustainable courts that share personnel and other resources. Please do NOT complete this form without determining if an existing accountability court can be expanded. Additionally, please complete a separate NOI for each accountability court, regardless of intentions to complete a combined grant application.

All received submissions for proposed new accountability courts will be reviewed by the Funding Committee. The NOI point of contact will receive written notice of the Funding Committee’s decision on or before October 17, 2025.

The court types included within the NOI are adult felony drug courts, mental health courts, veterans’ treatment courts, DUI courts, family treatment courts, juvenile drug courts, and juvenile mental health courts.

Please note that the form must be completed by using an electronic survey submission. Several questions are logic questions and will only display based on prior field values entered.
