About this opportunity
The Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women is seeking applications for its OVW Fiscal Year 2024 National Deaf Services Program. This cooperative agreement opportunity aims to provide continued funding for the implementation of recommendations outlined in the "Expanding Deaf-Specific Victim Services Nationwide: A 5-Year Strategy" report. The program seeks to expand access to culturally and linguistically appropriate crisis intervention, advocacy, and healing resources for the Deaf community, which has historically been an underserved population. The solicitation has a due date of June 24, 2024, and the evaluation criteria will likely focus on the applicant's ability to effectively implement the proposed initiatives.
This funding opportunity does not provide specific award values or budget ranges. However, it is intended to support the expansion and strengthening of remote and in-person services for Deaf victims and survivors of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking nationwide.
Synopsis
This program is authorized by 34 U.S.C. § 20122 the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024, Public Law No. 118-42. In FY 2023, OVW made an award to Activating Change to implement Phase Two of a two-part initiative focusing on the expansion and strengthening of services for Deaf victims and survivors of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking. Specifically, Activating Change was funded to implement the recommendations outlined in Expanding Deaf-Specific Victim Services Nationwide: A 5-Year Strategy report (Report). This program will provide continued funding for the implementation of the recommendations outlined in the Report.
