Responding to the FY 2024 Second Chance Act Pay for Success Initiative Solicitation

Hosted by The Council of State Governments (CSG) Justice Center and the U.S Department of Justice’s Office of Justice Programs’ Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) 

In this webinar, representatives from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Justice Programs’ Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) and The Council of State Governments (CSG) Justice Center review the BJA FY24 Pay for Success Initiative Solicitation application process. The program supports performance-based and outcomes-based programming to provide reentry services for people leaving incarceration (Category 1) as well as permanent supportive housing (Category 2). Applicants may propose to establish new contracts or to amend or expand existing ones to serve people who are currently or were formerly involved in the justice system in order to improve reentry, lower recidivism, and improve the lives of individuals leaving the criminal justice system. 

Speakers: 

• Andre Bethea, Senior Policy Advisor, Bureau of Justice Assistance, Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice  
• Charles Francis, Deputy Program Director, Behavioral Health, CSG Justice Center
