Formula Grant 15JOVW24GG00930MUMU

This federal Formula Grant award of $252,846 was provided by the U.S. Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) under the State Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Coalitions Program (CFDA 16.556). The grant supports the critical work of the Georgia Network To End Sexual Assault Inc. (GNESA), a non-profit organization serving as the statewide coalition focused on coordinating victim services, prevention activities, and advocacy efforts to address sexual assault and violence against women in Georgia. The grant funds will enable GNESA to collaborate and coordinate with federal, state, and local entities engaged in violence against women activities, including working with judicial and law enforcement agencies, child protective services, and other providers to develop appropriate responses and policies to reduce or eliminate sexual assault. Additionally, the funding will support GNESA's efforts in designing and conducting public education campaigns, planning and monitoring the distribution of sub-grants, and strengthening individual and community knowledge to prevent sexual violence through comprehensive, multi-faceted approaches.
