What the grant funds
With this solicitation, OVC seeks to award a 36-month cooperative agreement to one lead organization that will (1) fund (through a competitive process) subawards to communities severely affected by violence to establish trauma recovery centers , and (2) provide technical assistance to the subawardees to support operation of the centers. The trauma recovery centers funded under this demonstration project will address crime victimization and support access to victims’ compensation, crime victims’ rights enforcement, trauma recovery, and healing. Subawardees will be expected to design centers to provide services to crime victims who traditionally do not seek victims’ services, assistance, or counseling, or are historically underserved. This demonstration is intended to span 5 years (60 months total) via an initial 3-year budget allocation under this solicitation, with the potential for noncompetitive continuation funding as the project moves from year 3 to year 5 of its implementation.
