About this opportunity

Description Overview This page provides a summary of each step you will take to manage an OJP award—from award acceptance to closeout. OJP staff and award recipients use the Justice Grants System (JustGrants) to manage awards. In JustGrants, you can: See all your DOJ/OJP applications and awards in one place. Assign users to applications and awards and find your DOJ grant manager’s contact information. Track award progress and spending, submit required reports, and request modifications. Verify your entity profile and access documents such as current Indirect Cost Rate Agreements. Visit the JustGrants Training and Resources website for award management checklists, videos, and training or to log in to JustGrants. Resources JustGrants Training and Resources Website DOJ Grants Financial Guide Legal Overview of OJP Grant Requirements Accept the Award Review and Accept the Award After you receive notice of an award, you must formally accept the award in JustGrants. Each award (also referred to as a “funded award”) will have an award package in JustGrants that contains an award letter, award information, project and financial information, and award conditions. Accepting an award comes with important responsibilities. Carefully review the award package and determine whether you can commit to fulfilling all award requirements. Your Entity Administrator and Authorized Representative must then take steps to accept or decline the award in JustGrants. Details of the acceptance will be saved in the award package in JustGrants. Visit the JustGrants Award Acceptance Training page for step-by-step guidance on how to accept an award. Note: Your Authorized Representative must have the legal authority to enter into contracts, grants, and cooperative agreements with the federal government on behalf of your entity. Importance of Award Conditions When you accept an award, you enter into a legal agreement to follow the conditions outlined in your award. These conditions reflect applicable laws and rules. Ensure everyone involved in carrying out the award knows their responsibilities. If you fail to comply with award conditions, OJP may withhold funds, disallow costs, or terminate your award. OJP provides a general overview of award conditions by fiscal year in which the award was made: Fiscal Year 2025 Awards Fiscal Year 2024 Awards Fiscal Year 2023 Awards Fiscal Year 2022 Awards Notices of Legal Changes If special circumstances arise regarding particular award conditions, OJP will update its Legal Notices page. Part 200 of Title 2 of the Code of Federal Regulations (commonly referred to as “Part 200 Uniform Requirements” or “Part 200”) is incorporated into all OJP award conditions. As Part 200 is updated, OJP updates its guidance to ensure these governmentwide provisions are reflected in award conditions and other OJP grant guidance. Complete Financial Reports Quarterly Reporting You must complete a Federal Financial Report (FFR), also known as the SF-425, in JustGrants within 30 days after each quarter ends. Late FFRs will automatically freeze your access to funds until the delinquent report is submitted. The table below shows reporting periods and due dates, which apply to all awards and all years. Quarterly Federal Financial Reports Reporting Period Due Date October 1–December 31 January 30 January 1–March 31 April 30 April 1–June 30 July 30 July 1–September 30 October 30 Reporting Process Financial reports must provide details on how you allocated award funds. These should align with your project’s approved scope, budget, timeline, and programmatic progress. You may be asked to provide documentation supporting your grant expenditures. Be sure to keep up-to-date records for everything charged to the grant in a centralized grant file and be prepared to share those when requested. For more details on financial reports: Check the DOJ Grants Financial Guide for requirements.
