Background

The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) is expanding its Arrestee Drug Abuse Monitoring (ADAM) program by enrolling 15 new sites in Fiscal Year 2000. The ADAM system consists of 35 sites with an expected total of 75 sites by FY 2001. Under this solicitation municipalities can apply to be added to the ADAM network. Eligible municipalities have been determined based on population size, or include the largest city in States with smaller populations. NIJ will select 15 new sites with an expectation that these municipalities will begin operating as ADAM sites during FY 2000, subject to the upcoming Congressional budget appropriations. Sites not selected in FY 2000 will continue to be eligible for enrollment in the subsequent year until the anticipated total of 75 ADAM sites has been reached. This solicitation is applicable only to the eligible municipalities who wish to apply for one of the 15 new ADAM sites to be added during FY 2000.

After new sites have been selected, NIJ will issue a separate solicitation for parties interested in receiving funds to manage and operate ADAM in the selected municipalities. Through this to-be- released solicitation, local data collection teams will compete against each other for the funding to manage data collection in the 15 new ADAM sites.
