Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0008173

The U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Counterterrorism (CT) is soliciting proposals for a discretionary grant aimed at supporting the rehabilitation and reintegration (often shortened to RampR) of families of foreign terrorist fighters (FTFs) who are returning to Central Asia, specifically to the Kyrgyz Republic and/or Tajikistan. The core purpose of the opportunity is to help these returning family members transition back into their communities in a way that promotes safety, stability, and long-term resilience, reducing the risk of marginalization, retraumatization, stigma, or future radicalization. The program is positioned as a counterterrorism-focused effort that uses community-based and rehabilitative approaches rather than purely punitive ones, recognizing that returning family members can include spouses and children who may have experienced conflict, displacement, coercion, or other serious harms.

This funding opportunity (SFOP0008173) was issued under CFDA 19.701 and is categorized as a grant under a discretionary competition. The notice indicates that CT expects to make a single award, with a maximum award amount (ceiling) of $610,000. The opportunity was posted on June 1, 2021, with an original application deadline of July 13, 2021, signaling a relatively tight window for applicants to propose an implementation plan, partnerships, safeguarding measures, and monitoring and evaluation approaches tailored to the Kyrgyz Republic and/or Tajikistan context.

In practical terms, projects responsive to this call would typically focus on helping returnee families meet immediate and longer-term needs that affect successful reintegration. That can include coordinated case management; trauma-informed psychosocial support; support for child well-being and reintegration into education; family counseling; life-skills and livelihood readiness; assistance navigating civil documentation, health, and social services; and community-level engagement to reduce stigma and prevent social exclusion. Because the target population involves families associated with foreign terrorist fighters, strong risk management and safeguarding practices are usually central to program design, including careful beneficiary screening consistent with legal requirements, protection of sensitive personal data, and strategies to avoid inadvertently increasing stigma or community tensions.

Eligibility is described broadly as "others" with further details referenced in the full eligibility section, implying that a range of organizations may apply depending on the specific criteria in the complete announcement. In similar State Department counterterrorism grant competitions, eligible applicants often include non-profit organizations, non-governmental organizations, international organizations, and potentially certain educational or research entities, provided they can demonstrate relevant experience, robust compliance capacity, and the ability to operate effectively in the target countries. Given the geographic and thematic focus, applicants would generally be expected to show strong local partnerships and contextual knowledge of Kyrgyz and/or Tajik institutions and community dynamics.

Overall, the opportunity is designed to fund one comprehensive, well-structured initiative that can demonstrate measurable progress toward safe and sustainable reintegration outcomes for returning FTF family members in the Kyrgyz Republic and/or Tajikistan. The emphasis is on practical support that reduces vulnerabilities and builds pathways back into normal civic life, while aligning with U.S. counterterrorism objectives and responsible program implementation standards.
