- What it does
- The Administration supports a combined public health and public safety approach to reducing drug use and its consequences. The National Drug Control Strategy recognizes that for individuals who come into contact with the justice system, substance use disorders must be identified and treated as early in the justice process as possible, and no one should be incarcerated for a non-violent drug offense alone. Drug courts and other evidence-based diversion programs are key to the success of this approach. The Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) will award one or more cooperative agreements to establish training, technical assistance, and other resources to advance criminal justice reforms, including drug courts that respond to the needs of justice-involved individuals with substance use disorders.

How to read these numbers
- Committed through this program
Money committed under this assistance listing (its CFDA program), counted in the year each action happened.
- How it's paid
Most programs pay out one way — a grant, or a direct payment to individuals; the flow bar only appears when a program genuinely mixes types.
- Some recipients aren't itemized
For entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare, the government reports one aggregate instead of naming tens of millions of people, so the recipient roster isn't part of the public record.
- Awards, counted once
An award count is the number of distinct awards with at least one action that year — each counted once, however many times it was amended.
- The colored bars
Every bar on this page splits by how the money moves:
