## What the grant funds

This program is authorized by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 (Public Law No: 117-328). The EM Program solicitation is one of two solicitations issued under the Consolidated Youth and Engaging Men (CYEM) Program (CFDA# 16.888). The other program solicitation is the Grants to Prevent and Respond to Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual Assault, Stalking, and Sex Trafficking Against Children and Youth Program (CY). Applicants interested in developing projects to serve children and youth impacted by domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, and sex trafficking should submit a proposal under the OVW FY 2023 CY Solicitation. Applicants and project partners who apply to both CY and EM programs are only eligible to receive one award. The EM Program supports projects that create educational programming and community organizing to encourage men and boys to work as allies with women and girls to prevent domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, and sex trafficking.
