Opportunity Summary:
The Engaging Men in Preventing Sexual Assault, Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, and Stalking Grant Program (Funding Opportunity Number OVW 2010 2724) is a discretionary funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women (OVW). Its central purpose is to advance OVW's public safety mission by supporting initiatives that actively involve men in preventing sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking. The program is structured to strengthen prevention efforts through public education and related strategies that speak directly to men and boys as partners in changing norms, behaviors, and community responses that contribute to violence.
Funding is provided through cooperative agreements, which typically means the federal agency expects to have more ongoing involvement than under a standard grant, such as providing guidance, requiring coordination, or engaging in collaborative oversight. OVW anticipated making about 50 awards under this solicitation, with an estimated total funding pool of $5,863,000. Individual awards could be as large as $300,000, and the opportunity did not require cost sharing or matching funds, which can make participation more feasible for organizations that do not have significant unrestricted resources.
Eligibility is specific and emphasizes demonstrated prevention experience. Applicants are limited to nonprofit, nongovernmental organizations or coalitions that can show a documented history of creating and administering effective public education campaigns focused on preventing domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Government entities can also apply, including state, territorial, tribal, and local units of government, but only if they are partnered with an eligible nonprofit or coalition with that documented prevention campaign track record. The broader eligibility categories listed for this opportunity include state governments; county and city or township governments; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; Native American tribal organizations that are not federally recognized governments; 501(c)(3) nonprofits (excluding institutions of higher education); nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (also excluding institutions of higher education); and other entities as clarified in the full solicitation. In practical terms, the emphasis is not just on organizational type, but on credible experience designing and running public education efforts that address these forms of violence.
The opportunity was posted on April 26, 2010, with the application deadline set for June 3, 2010. The program was later archived on July 3, 2010. The funding activity category is Law, Justice, and Legal Services, aligning the program with OVW's broader portfolio of efforts that support prevention, accountability, and victim safety.
For applicants seeking the full requirements, program expectations, and instructions, OVW provided a solicitation document online (linked in the announcement). For access issues or assistance, OVW listed its main line at 202-307-6026.
