The Transitional Housing Assistance Grants for Victims of Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual Assault, and Stalking Program (CFDA 16.736), administered by the U.S. Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women, awarded a $593,750 project grant to Empowering Pacific Island Communities, Inc. (EPIC), a nonprofit organization in Pago Pago, American Samoa. The grant will fund EPIC's provision of 30 scattered-site transitional housing units and a range of support services, including rental and utility assistance, case management, safety planning, career counseling, job training, and housing advocacy, to aid survivors of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking in securing permanent housing and achieving economic self-sufficiency. EPIC will collaborate with two local partners, the Pacific Youth and Community Development and the American Samoa Workforce Development Board, to deliver this holistic, survivor-centered transitional housing program over the 3-year project period from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2027.
