About this program
The Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs (OJPD) funds establishment and operation of state-run hate crime reporting hotlines through the Khalid Jabara and Heather Heyer NO HATE Act (CFDA 16.048), with the most recent grant award issued October 1, 2024.
The program directly funds state agencies to establish hotlines that serve hate crime victims who might otherwise be reluctant to report incidents. Recent awards show activity extending beyond hotline operations themselves: Washington State's most recent award ($594 thousand Project Grant, October 2024) supports community outreach and a multilingual awareness toolkit to drive hotline utilization; two earlier Washington State awards ($1.125 million Cooperative Agreement, October 2024) fund partnerships with community-based organizations for culturally responsive victim engagement. Awards from 2023 funded Nevada and California hotlines, as well as training and technical assistance for hotline grantees nationwide. Other funded activities under the program include law enforcement NIBRS (National Incident-Based Reporting System) certification to standardize hate crime data collection. Full Circle Training Solutions received $887 thousand in December 2023 for rapid deployment of NIBRS training to law enforcement agencies; the IJIS Institute received $3.72 million in the same period for comparable NIBRS transition support.
Eight grants totaling $10.7 million have been awarded since March 2023, with activity cadence declining from six awards in 2023 to two in 2024. The portfolio is predominantly Cooperative Agreements (88 percent of awards) with one Project Grant. Funding concentrates heavily among three Office of Justice Programs sub-agencies: the Victims of Crime office dominates with five awards and $5.4 million (50 percent of federal dollars); Bureau of Justice Statistics follows with two awards and $4.6 million; and Bureau of Justice Assistance contributed one award worth $594 thousand. Award periods typically run three years.
Recent grant opportunities remain open.

BJA's FY25 Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Program (O-BJA-2025-172359, posted January 17, 2025, due April 17, 2025) funds broader law enforcement outreach, education, victim reporting tools, and prosecution support.
