FY2025 Regional Juvenile Detention Grant

Counties that establish regions by using the provisions of the inter-local Cooperation Act, Title 7, Chapter 11, Part 1, MCA may apply to the Montana Board of Crime Control (MBCC) for funding of detention services. $600,873.00 will be available during the project period, depending upon availability of state funds. Because state funds are not always available immediately following the award date, applicants should prepare for this contingency. The regional breakdown for funding is: Western Region - $179,781 Southwest Region - $107,256 South Central Region - $137,239 North Central Region - $130,209 Eastern Region - $46,388 To receive funds, the service must be part of the original Regional Plan with an assigned budget or amended into the plan prior to being reimbursed. The plans can be amended by approval of the Regional Detention Board and approval by MBCC. The regional authorities will be responsible for screening county costs that are not part of the most recently approved plan.
