NIGP 95271: Rape and Sexual Assault Prevention

NIGP 95271 Rape And Sexual Assault Prevention, an Item code, encompasses grant funding, service coordination, and professional development activities that state and local governments deploy to support sexual assault treatment, prevention programming, and professional training in specialized response fields. State and local issuing bodies—including cities, counties, and state health and human services agencies—solicit under this code to fund nonprofit service delivery, capital projects addressing trauma and substance-use comorbidities in sexual-assault survivors, and conference coordination for specialized professional communities such as sex-offender treatment providers. The City of Santa Monica and Bernalillo County represent typical municipal and county buyers; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission represents state-level procurement in this space. Grants typically require eligible nonprofits to demonstrate evidence-based program design, robust evaluation metrics, racial equity commitments, and operational capacity, with funding contingent on annual performance review and council approval rather than guaranteed multi-year commitment.

Recent opportunities span California and Texas. The City of Santa Monica posted a four-year Human Services Grants Program RFP (Solicitation 489) due December 14, 2026, soliciting nonprofit proposals for community-need-driven human services addressing sexual assault and related trauma; the program structure allows organizations to elect either a 30 percent cash-match model or a living-wage employment model at $25.00 per hour. Bernalillo County released a grant process (RFP5326EM) due July 1, 2026, targeting shovel-ready capital projects funded through opioid-settlement allocations for treatment of opioid-use disorder and co-occurring mental health or substance-use conditions, which frequently overlap with sexual-assault populations. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicited Conference Planning and Coordination Services (HHS0014929) to design and execute an annual two-day statewide training conference for the Council on Sex Offender Treatment, accommodating up to 450 participants; the contract runs on a zero-dollar basis with revenue generated through registration fees and exhibit sales, with proposals due December 20, 2025.
