About this opportunity
The OVW Fiscal Year 2025 Domestic Violence Mentor Court Technical Assistance Initiative is a cooperative agreement opportunity offered by the Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women (OVW). This initiative aims to recognize well-established specialized courts and enable them to guide novice or developing courts and court-based programs on best practices for responding effectively to domestic violence cases to ensure victim safety and offender accountability. The initiative will involve the selected mentor courts hosting site visits, linking courts with peer courts facing similar challenges, and assisting other domestic violence courts in implementing proven strategies.
The federal grant awards under this program typically range from $114,448 to $742,500, with the performance period typically spanning 24-36 months. The funding is intended to support the development of national service models and improve institutional responses to domestic violence across various settings.
