What the grant funds
The OVW Tribal Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Coalitions Program (Tribal Coalitions Program) (CFDA 16.557), is authorized by 34 U.S.C § 10441(d) and 34 U.S.C. § 12511(d). The Tribal Coalitions Program supports the development and operation of nonprofit, nongovernmental tribal domestic violence and sexual assault coalitions. It is a mixed formula and discretionary program, with each recognized coalition receiving an equal amount of base funding, sexual assault and dual coalitions receiving an additional amount for sexual assault-focused activities, and organizations determined by OVW to be qualified to apply to incorporate and operate new tribal coalitions eligible for discretionary funding.
