About this opportunity
The Department of State Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor seeks applicants for the Program to End Modern Slavery (PEMS), a grants competition supporting evidence-based anti-trafficking interventions with a January 1, 2099 application deadline and funding available under CFDA 19.019 (International Programs to Combat Human Trafficking).
Eligible applicants are U.S.-based and foreign 501(c)(3) nonprofits. The program accepts applications from international organizations, for-profit entities, and universities as well, though this solicitation restricts awards to nonprofits.
Recent awards under the parent program have ranged from $500,000 to $7.0 million with performance periods of 24 to 54 months. The parent program summary notes that the 2025 PEMS funding competition offered approximately $22 million in FY2024 funding through cooperative agreements ranging from $500,000 to $5,000,000.
PEMS establishes a strategic funding framework to develop, test, evaluate, and scale interventions that directly advance U.S. national security, economic competitiveness, and efforts to combat transnational crime. The underlying TIP Office strategy encompasses prevention of trafficking, protection and assistance of victims, and prosecution of traffickers. Applications are welcomed for interventions addressing human trafficking in any geographic location. The parent program identifies priority focus areas including sex trafficking in Costa Rica and sex and labor trafficking in West Africa, though these are not mandatory.
Performance periods typically span up to three years. Awards are administered through the Department of Health and Human Services Payment Management System. All selection criteria are set forth in the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), available on Grants.gov.
