Lackawanna County DA

Grants Assistant

Office portfolio from Kim Potter's July 2026 lists, plus open solicitations verified on 2026-07-26.

Start with My week

The default view shows grants you marked Pursue or Watch, plus anything due in the next 7 days. Use List to browse all open RFPs, or Board for the office pipeline.

Two-step federal grants (DOJ / COPS)

Some grants require two separate filings: first a short form on Grants.gov, then the full application in JustGrants a few days later. You cannot skip Grants.gov and apply in JustGrants alone.

If you see “Grants.gov deadline is over”, the short-form date has passed. Check Grants.gov — if that form is already submitted, you can still finish JustGrants before its deadline. If not, that round is closed.

Other grants (for example SAMHSA) use Grants.gov only — one step, no JustGrants.

Office fit badges

  • DA can lead — your office can be the applicant
  • DA as partner — another agency should lead; DA may join
  • Refer out — not DA — pass to police or another agency (example: COPS hiring grants)
  • Check eligibility — read the brief or NOFO before investing time

    Two-step grant — Grants.gov deadline is over

    Many DOJ/COPS grants require two submissions: a short form on Grants.gov, then the full package in JustGrants. JustGrants alone does not count.

    1. Grants.gov (short form) — was due Fri, Jul 24, 2026 · 11:59 PM ET. That deadline has passed.
    2. JustGrants (full application) — due Mon, Jul 27, 2026 · 8:59 PM ET. Still open only if step 1 is on file.

    Check your Grants.gov workspace. If the short form is there, finish JustGrants before the deadline. If not, this round is closed.

    Round 5 closes Monday, July 27 at 8:59 PM Eastern (JustGrants). Grants.gov Step 1 passed Friday, July 24 — confirm the short form is on file before finishing. If Step 1 was never submitted, Round 5 is closed. Round 6 opens Tuesday, July 28.

    • Letter of support from DOJ/USAO strongly expected in application package.
    • If Grants.gov Step 1 was not filed by Jul 24, Round 5 is closed — wait for Round 6 (opens Jul 28). JustGrants alone does not count.
