About this opportunity

The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) seeks nonprofit organizations to provide training and technical assistance that improve the quality of investigation and criminal prosecution of child abuse cases, including child physical abuse, child sexual abuse, technology-facilitated child exploitation, and child fatalities. Applicant organizations must be either 501(c)(3) nonprofits or non-501(c)(3) nonprofits with demonstrated expertise in supporting criminal prosecutors and child protection systems. The funding will support cooperative agreements designed to strengthen multidisciplinary responses to child abuse through evidence-based curriculum development, training delivery, capacity building for underserved populations, and direct services to child abuse victims and families. Evaluation criteria will include eligible organization status, application responsiveness, merit, programmatic soundness, budget reasonableness, and organizational risk assessment, as specified in the formal Notice of Funding Opportunity. The application deadline is March 30, 2026, with a posting date of February 19, 2026, providing applicants with approximately six weeks to prepare and submit proposals.

Award values under this program historically range from approximately $428,000 to $26,059,714, with cooperative agreement periods typically spanning one to three years depending on project scope and regional service delivery requirements. Recent awards demonstrate substantial federal investment, with regional children's advocacy centers receiving approximately $4.7 million and specialized training initiatives funded between $428,000 and $880,000. Performance will be conducted primarily at the recipient organization and through regional or national service delivery networks, with funded activities delivered across designated service areas to support local, state, and regional child protection professionals.

Synopsis

This NOFO will support attorneys who improve the quality of investigation and criminal prosecution of child abuse cases, including child physical abuse, child sexual abuse, technology-facilitated child exploitation, and child fatalities.
