About the company
Cornerstone Advocacy Service, a Minneapolis-based tax-exempt nonprofit, is a prime recipient of federal grants for victim services, domestic violence and sexual assault survivor support, housing assistance, and crime victim services delivered as a sub-recipient through Minnesota state pass-through funding. The organization operates predominantly as a sub-recipient (65% of recent awards) funneling federal dollars into direct victim services, while also holding prime grants from the Department of Justice and the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Cornerstone's grant portfolio emphasizes victim services and housing support for vulnerable populations, with particular operational focus on Deaf survivors of interpersonal violence. Recent prime grants include a $600,000 award from the DOJ Office on Violence Against Women under the Education, Training, and Enhanced Services to End Violence Against and Abuse of Women with Disabilities program (CFDA 16.529), running August 2026 through July 2029, that funds training for partner organizations, curriculum development focused on the Deaf community, and delivery of communication technology and assistive equipment to partner agencies. Cornerstone also holds a $670,671 project grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267) covering October 2025 through September 2026 for permanent supportive housing, rapid rehousing, transitional housing, supportive services, and Homeless Management Information Systems operations in the Minneapolis area. The HUD Continuum of Care Program has funded Cornerstone in successive annual cycles since at least 2022.
Customer concentration is pronounced. The Department of Justice Office of Justice Programs' Victims of Crime account (15 awards, covering 48% of the award count) and the HUD Continuum of Care program (7 awards) account for 71% of recent federal funding activity across all customer agencies. Cornerstone's sub-award footprint runs through the Minnesota Department of Public Safety as prime grantee, delivering direct crime victim services; the source shows twelve sub-awards from Minnesota DPS spanning 2021 through 2026. The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families and the DOJ Office on Violence Against Women complete the top five customer set, together accounting for 97% of awards. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $13.3 million, with activity showing recovery in 2025 and 2026 after a significant contraction in 2024 (one award).
All work is performed in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Cornerstone does not hold federal contracts or seats on contract vehicles such as GWACs or IDIQs; the organization operates exclusively in the federal grant space as a victim services and housing support provider.
