How To Apply For Grants

• Governor’s Office (CJD) publishes an RFA (Request for Applications) on its website and in the Texas Register.
• Applications accessed via eGrants at http://cjdonline.governor.state.tx.us.
• H-GAC conducts workshops for all applicants interested in funds from one or more of the funding streams.
• Applicant completes application on-line and submits directly to Governor’s Office via eGrants.
• Governor’s Office determines which applications qualify for funding, and sends those to H-GAC.
• H-GAC uses a local committee, called the Criminal Justice Advisory Committee (CJAC), to review and score the applications. This provides CJD with a local voice in prioritizing which applications merit funding and which do not.
• The priority list developed by the CJAC is sent to the Governor’s Office, where final decisions are made on who gets funded.
• H-GAC goes out into the field to make pre-monitoring and technical assistance site visits.
