Opportunity Information: Apply for INL240020 DRUGPREVENTIONPROG 01102024
The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) is offering a discretionary grant opportunity titled "Drug Prevention and Awareness Programming in Lahore, Pakistan" (Funding Opportunity Number: INL240020 DRUGPREVENTIONPROG 01102024; CFDA/Assistance Listing: 19.704). The central purpose of the grant is to support the creation and strengthening of an anti-drug coalition network in Lahore that can better prevent and reduce illegal drug use and the community harms that tend to follow, including drug sales, associated criminal activity, and gang involvement. Rather than focusing only on one-off awareness events, the opportunity is framed around building a sustained coalition structure with practical capacity, local coordination, and the tools needed to keep prevention work active over time.
A key requirement is that the selected implementer will work in close coordination with INL-Pakistan to identify which parts of Lahore District should be prioritized for coalition activities. The solicitation specifically points to union councils as the unit of focus, with prioritization based on demonstrated need and community-level problem severity. In practice, this means the project is expected to start with a structured process to map, consult, and rank union councils according to indicators such as visible drug consumption and trafficking patterns, local crime levels, and the presence or influence of gangs. The intent is to concentrate limited resources where the community impact is likely to be greatest, while also setting up a coalition model that can be replicated or expanded beyond the initial target areas.
The program emphasizes equipping coalitions with "skills, knowledge, and resources," which signals an expectation for capacity-building as a core deliverable. While the notice does not list prescribed activities, the language implies a comprehensive approach that typically includes training coalition members, developing shared prevention strategies, improving community awareness efforts, strengthening referral pathways to services, and building partnerships among stakeholders who can influence local outcomes (for example, community leaders, educators, youth groups, health and social service providers, and others engaged in community safety and prevention). The coalition network concept also suggests an emphasis on coordination mechanisms, clear roles and responsibilities, and a common operating picture so that prevention messaging and community action are aligned instead of fragmented.
Eligibility is broad and includes both U.S.-based and non-U.S.-based organizations and educational institutions. Eligible applicants include U.S.-based non-profit and non-governmental organizations, as well as U.S.-based educational institutions that qualify under section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. tax code or under 26 U.S.C. 115. The opportunity is also open to foreign-based non-profits/NGOs and foreign-based educational institutions. The grant is being offered as a single award (Expected Awards: 1), which means INL anticipates selecting one lead organization to manage the overall design, coordination with INL-Pakistan, and implementation across the targeted union councils.
The maximum funding amount listed for the award is $600,000 (Award Ceiling: 600000). The opportunity was created on January 10, 2024 (CreationDate: 2024-01-10), and the original application closing date was March 11, 2024 (OriginalClosingDate: 2024-03-11). The funding instrument type is a grant, and the activity category is listed as "Other," which is common for cross-cutting prevention and community coalition efforts that do not fit neatly into a single sector category.
Overall, the grant is designed for an organization that can combine on-the-ground community engagement in Lahore with structured coalition development, needs-based geographic targeting at the union council level, and close collaboration with INL-Pakistan. The expected end result is a functional network of anti-drug coalitions that is better able to organize local prevention efforts, raise awareness effectively, and reduce the community conditions that enable drug use, drug sales, and related crime.Apply for INL240020 DRUGPREVENTIONPROG 01102024
