About this opportunity
The Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) is seeking applicants for the Fiscal Year 2025 Training and Technical Assistance Initiative, a cooperative agreement designed to provide direct training and technical assistance (TTA) to current and potential OVW grant recipients. The primary objective is to enhance the capacity of civil and criminal justice system professionals and victim service providers to effectively respond to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking. Eligible applicants include higher education institutions, tribal organizations, nonprofit organizations, state and local governments, and public housing authorities. The initiative aims to strengthen organizational capabilities through comprehensive support, including peer-to-peer consultations, educational initiatives, and targeted assistance. The grant opportunity was posted on July 21, 2025, with proposals due by September 9, 2025, and applicants must submit through the Grants.gov portal and the Department of Justice's JustGrants System.
The federal grant awards under this program typically range from $250,000 to $2,200,000, with project periods spanning 12 to 36 months. The place of performance is nationwide, with the expectation that selected organizations will provide training, webinars, and resource development across multiple states and territories. Recipients must comply with the DOJ Financial Grants Management Guide and retain financial records and supporting documents for three years from the final expenditure report submission. The evaluation criteria will be specified in the program notice of funding opportunity (NOFO), with final award decisions made by the Office on Violence Against Women. Upon approval, the Authorized Representative must accept the award online.
