About this opportunity

The Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs (OJP), specifically the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC), is seeking cooperative agreement applications for services supporting victims of technology-facilitated abuse. This funding opportunity targets a range of eligible applicants including nonprofits, government entities, tribal organizations, and educational institutions to develop programs addressing technology-enabled harassment, stalking, and intimidation. The primary objective is to support services that help victims who experience bullying, stalking, or control through internet and technological means. Applicants will likely be evaluated on their proposed intervention strategies, understanding of technology-facilitated abuse, and capacity to deliver comprehensive victim support services. The grant opportunity was posted on July 22, 2025, with a critical application deadline of August 15, 2025, under the Crime Victim Assistance/Discretionary Grants program (CFDA 16.582).

While specific award amounts are not explicitly detailed in the grant opportunity, similar OVC discretionary grants typically range from $163,224 to $4,989,850, with most awards falling between $200,000 and $500,000. The performance period is expected to align with standard OJP grant timelines, likely spanning two to three years from the award date. The place of performance would be determined by the selected applicant's organizational location and proposed service delivery model, with a focus on nationwide implementation and serving diverse, potentially underserved communities experiencing technology-facilitated abuse.
