About this opportunity
Paragraph 1:
The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) is seeking to fund five training and technical assistance (TTA) providers to support grantees in the Office of Justice Programs' (OJP) Community Violence Intervention and Prevention Initiative (CVIPI). The goal of this initiative is to prevent and reduce violent crime in communities through comprehensive, evidence-based violence intervention and prevention programs. Key objectives include supporting partnerships among community stakeholders, addressing gang and gun violence, and enhancing the local capacity of community-based organizations. The application deadline for this opportunity is September 20, 2024.
Paragraph 2:
This federal grant opportunity does not specify a total budget or individual award amounts. However, previous CVIPI funding has generally ranged from $500,000 to $2 million for 2-3 year project periods. The services procured through this opportunity will be provided on a nationwide basis to support CVIPI grantees across the country.
Synopsis
With this solicitation, BJA will fund five training and technical assistance (TTA) providers to support grantees in the Office of Justice Programs' (OJP) Community Violence Intervention and Prevention Initiative (CVIPI) and to provide supplemental funding to one site based grantee selected through this program in FY2024. OJP's CVIPI seeks to prevent and reduce violent crime in communities by supporting comprehensive, evidence-based violence intervention and prevention programs, including efforts to address gang and gun violence based on partnerships among community residents, local government agencies, victim service providers, community-based organizations (CBOs), law enforcement, hospitals, researchers, and other community stakeholders. CVIPI is an OJP initiative, and BJA and its partners reviewed and recommended applications for funding in FY2022 and FY2023. In FY2022, the OJP awarded three national TTA providers under two national training and technical assistance-oriented categories: 6 and 7; and awarded three intermediary awards who will support training and technical assistance as well as provide funding to community-based organizations to enhance local or capacity of CVI organizations in category 5. In FY2023, BJA made additional awards including partially funding a state level award to the State of Illinois. OJP did not have sufficient funding to fully fund this recommended award and noted its plan in the approved FY23 CVIPI funding recommendations memo to provide the remaining funding with FY2024 funding.
