Opportunity Information: Apply for OVW 2020 18272

The OVW Fiscal Year 2020 Grants to Prevent and Respond to Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual Assault, and Stalking Against Children and Youth Program (often referred to as the Children and Youth, or CY, Program) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women (OVW). It is designed to help communities build or strengthen coordinated, community-based approaches that prevent and respond to violence affecting children and youth, specifically domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking. The central focus is on developing or expanding strategies that are comprehensive in scope, meaning they can cover prevention, early intervention, treatment and healing services, and system or community responses that improve safety and outcomes for young people and the adults who support them.

This opportunity was released under Funding Opportunity Number OVW 2020 18272 and is associated with CFDA 16.888. Funding is provided as a grant (not a loan or cooperative agreement), and it falls under a general funding activity category labeled "Other," reflecting the cross-cutting nature of the work, which can span victim services, prevention education, multidisciplinary coordination, and community response improvements. The program emphasizes practical, on-the-ground efforts that meet the needs of children and youth who experience violence directly or are impacted by violence in their homes and relationships, including exposure to domestic violence and coercive control, teen dating violence, sexual victimization, and stalking behaviors.

Eligible applicants include county governments and city or township governments, federally recognized Native American tribal governments, other tribal organizations that are not federally recognized tribal governments, and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). This mix of eligible entities signals that OVW intended the funding to support local and tribal capacity, as well as specialized nonprofit victim service and prevention organizations that often lead community-based work with youth and families.

For the FY 2020 cycle, the grant listed an award ceiling of $500,000 per award and anticipated making approximately 11 awards. The opportunity was created on February 14, 2020, with an original closing date of March 30, 2020. In practical terms, that structure suggests moderately sized awards meant to fund a limited number of community efforts that can demonstrate a strong plan, meaningful partnerships, and the ability to implement or expand services and strategies that directly address the needs of children and youth affected by these forms of violence.

Overall, the CY Program opportunity is best understood as an investment in comprehensive community responses: improving prevention efforts aimed at youth, strengthening intervention pathways when violence occurs, expanding treatment and supportive services for children and adolescents who have been harmed or exposed to harm, and enhancing coordinated responses among partners such as victim service providers, child advocacy and youth-serving organizations, schools, tribal entities, law enforcement, courts, and other community systems that touch the lives of young people.
