What the grant funds

OJP is committed to advancing work that promotes civil rights and racial equity, increases access to justice, supports crime victims and individuals impacted by the justice system, strengthens community safety and protects the public from crime and evolving threats, and builds trust between law enforcement and the community. With this solicitation, OVC seeks to maintain a National Mass Violence Victimization Resource Center (MV Center), which identifies and develops evidence-based best practices for addressing the comprehensive needs of victims of mass violence and domestic terrorism with an emphasis on the provision of mental- and behavioral-health responses. (See this link for activities undertaken by the existing MV Center: NMVVRC - Home.) The center will provide training and education; an integrated mental- and behavioral-health response to mass violence incidents; and an analysis of mass violence incidents on victims and the potential association of mass violence with other crimes. It will leverage technology to develop and provide a variety of services and create and produce appropriate products and resources. The MV Center will be responsible for a project called "Improving Community Preparedness to Assist Victims of Mass Violence or Domestic Terrorism: Training and Technical Assistance (ICP TTA)," (see this link for the current ICP TTA project: Home - ICP TTA) and will also develop and convene a national conference focused on responding to victims of mass violence.
