About this program
The Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women (CFDA 16.527) funds supervised visitation centers and safe child-exchange programs serving families affected by domestic violence, dating violence, child abuse, sexual assault, or stalking, with the most recent grant award issued October 1, 2013—over thirteen years ago.
Program activity has stalled. The portfolio shows 305 total awards spanning 2002 to 2013, with a historical cadence of 18–28 awards per year during 2009–2013. No grants have been awarded since October 2013. The two most recent posted opportunities, from FY 2011 and FY 2012 with due dates in March 2011 and March 2012 respectively, indicate the program has not issued a solicitation in over fourteen years.
Funded activities center on establishing and operating visitation and exchange centers at the county and community level. Representative awards include Harmony House in New Orleans ($318 thousand), St. Louis County Supervised Visitation Collaborative ($347 thousand), Faith and Liberty's Place ($349 thousand), and the Fayette County–Central Kentucky Safe Havens Project ($500 thousand). Projects typically operate for three to four years and include needs assessments, development of security protocols, staffing, and direct service delivery. Eligible applicants include states, tribal governments, and units of local government.
The program is predominantly funded through the Office on Violence Against Women, which accounts for 269 of 305 awards ($102.9 million in federal dollars obligated). The Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs supplied 23 awards ($6.2 million), with smaller contributions from other DOJ divisions. Assistance type mix is split between Project Grants (59 percent, 180 awards) and Cooperative Agreements (41 percent, 125 awards). Combined federal funding obligated totals $113.9 million against combined total obligated of $115.5 million, indicating minimal non-federal match.
Representative award magnitudes cluster in the $300,000–$500,000 range, with outliers including a $800 thousand award to OVW Fiscal Year 2011 Safe Havens and a $639 thousand grant to an OVW FY 2010 Safe Havens Program. The program should be considered inactive pending reauthorization or new solicitation activity.
