State Criminal Alien Assistance Program – FY 2020 SCAAP Award Announcement
SCAAP
Dear SCAAP Recipient:
The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) is pleased to announce that Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 State Criminal Alien Assistance Program (SCAAP) awards have been processed. The FY 2020 SCAAP award amounts are listed on the SCAAP website. To access FY 2020 SCAAP award funds, entities must assign users in the Justice Grants System (JustGrants), electronically accept the award in JustGrants within 45 days, enroll in the Automated Standard Application for Payments (ASAP), and request payment (drawdown) in ASAP by 12-27-22.
Please note that the notification email from JustGrants included standard language that is included in all JustGrants award notification emails. While the Entity Administrator must assign a Grant Award Administrator, Financial Manager, and Authorized Representative for the SCAAP award to be accepted, financial reports, performance reports, and grant award modifications are not applicable to SCAAP. In addition, the award closeout is an automatic process that occurs once the award draw down is conducted in ASAP. No action is required by the recipient to complete the award closeout.
