FY21 sasp formula grant

This $436,990 Formula Grant was awarded on August 1, 2021 by the Department of Justice Offices Boards and Divisions Office on Violence Against Women to the Idaho State Police to complete work by July 31, 2023. The funding supports the Sexual Assault Services Formula Program (CFDA 16.017), which aims to increase intervention, advocacy, and support services for victims of sexual assault.

Through three sub-awards, the grant funds sexual assault advocacy and outreach programs delivered by Alternatives to Violence of the Palouse, crisis intervention and advocacy services provided by The Mahoney House in Lemhi County, and services coordinated by the Domestic Violence Sexual Assault Center. Specifically, the sub-awardees provide services such as accompaniment, counseling, and assistance to victims, families, and others affected by sexual violence. This coordinated funding stream aims to ensure critical support services are available to communities throughout Idaho impacted by sexual assault.
