Sdvc-2026 - statewide domestic violence coalition

The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families awarded $370,000 to the Utah Domestic Violence Coalition on October 1, 2025, under the Family Violence Prevention and Services / State Domestic Violence Coalitions program (CFDA 93.591).

The Utah Domestic Violence Coalition, a tax-exempt nonprofit headquartered in Salt Lake City and formally known as the Utah Domestic Violence Advisory Council, provides statewide coordination and support services for domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking prevention and victim services across Utah. The Coalition functions as the state's designated domestic violence coalition, offering education and technical assistance to service providers, operating a 24/7 domestic violence hotline, maintaining an information clearinghouse and resource center on domestic violence, and supporting development of policies, protocols, and procedures to enhance domestic violence intervention and prevention statewide.

The period of performance runs from October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2027. Place of performance is Utah.

The program's statutory purpose is to confirm federal commitment to reducing domestic violence and to fund the HHS-designated State Domestic Violence Coalition to enable domestic violence service providers to establish and maintain shelter and supportive services for victims and their dependents, serve as a primary point of contact and resource center on domestic violence for the state, and support development of intervention and prevention policies and protocols.

The award is a Formula Grant, with funds established in an account for drawdown by the recipient.
