Opportunity Information: Apply for OVC 2018 13701
The OVC FY 2018 VOCA Victim Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number OVC-2018-13701) is a federal grant program administered by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office for Victims of Crime (OVC). It provides annual VOCA victim assistance funding to each eligible state and territorial victim assistance program, with the goal of supporting a statewide network of eligible crime victim assistance providers. In practice, the federal award goes to the designated state or territorial administering agency, which then distributes funds to local and statewide victim service organizations that deliver direct services to people harmed by crime.
The central purpose of the funding is to ensure that crime victims can access direct, practical help through eligible victim assistance programs within each state or territory. The grant is intended to underwrite services that respond to victims needs and promote safety, stabilization, and recovery, consistent with VOCA victim assistance requirements. While the money is primarily meant to flow through to front-line service providers, the solicitation allows states and territories to retain a limited portion for their own administration and capacity-building. Specifically, states and territories may keep up to 5 percent of the total grant award for administrative and training purposes, with the remainder intended to support direct service programming delivered by subrecipients.
This is categorized as a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) and falls under the broad activity areas of Income Security and Social Services as well as Law, Justice and Legal Services. The associated CFDA number is 16.575. The opportunity anticipates awards to 56 entities, reflecting distribution across states and eligible territories. The listed award ceiling is $397,000,000, indicating the potential total amount available across the program rather than a typical single-award cap for one applicant.
Eligibility is aimed at state and territorial victim assistance administering agencies (not individual local nonprofits applying directly to OVC under this particular solicitation). The posting notes "Others" in the eligibility field, with clarification referenced in an additional eligibility section, but the narrative makes clear the intent to fund each eligible state victim assistance program so it can support eligible victim assistance providers operating in that jurisdiction.
Key dates include a creation/posting date of May 2, 2018, and a closing date listed as May 31, 2018, with the description also instructing applicants to apply by May 30, 2018. Applicants would need to follow the solicitation instructions and submit by the stated deadline to be considered for that fiscal year funding.Apply for OVC 2018 13701
