Opportunity Summary:
The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) announced a discretionary Family Violence Prevention and Services Act (FVPSA) opportunity to fund a single national-level project focused on improving services for children and youth who have been exposed to domestic violence. The core purpose is not to directly fund local services, but to strengthen the field by gathering what is already known to work, organizing it in a practical way, and making it easier for domestic violence programs, State Domestic Violence Coalitions, States, and Tribes to access reliable guidance, tools, and technical assistance. The funded organization would act as a coordinated “information hub” that connects people to existing resources and helps spread emerging, promising practices, rather than building a new stand-alone resource center.
A major expectation of the award is that the grantee will identify, collate, and disseminate nationwide resources on promising practices and available technical assistance for programs serving children exposed to domestic violence. In plain terms, the project is meant to take scattered knowledge (program models, protocols, training materials, lessons learned, and practical tools) and package it so it can be used consistently by current and future recipients of the FVPSA “Expanding Services for Children and Youth” grants as well as the broader network of domestic violence service providers. The work is intended to directly support FVPSA Program efforts to develop clearer guidance and improve the overall national response to children exposed to domestic violence.
The scope is intentionally narrow and specialized. The grantee is expected to avoid duplicating work done by other youth-focused resource centers and to stay focused on services for children exposed to domestic violence. The announcement explicitly notes that the project should not drift into other children’s issues such as custody matters, internet safety, or broad general research unrelated to service delivery in the domestic violence context. The emphasis is on actionable, service-provider-oriented information: what programs can do, how to do it, and where to get support.
Beyond resource collection and dissemination, the project is designed to provide hands-on technical assistance to the “Expanding Services for Children and Youth” grantees. That includes direct support as well as facilitating peer-to-peer technical assistance so that grantees can learn from each other’s implementation experiences. Another key deliverable is evaluation support: the grantee is expected to help develop consistent national evaluation measures for these child-and-youth service expansion projects and assist individual grantees with designing and carrying out their own internal evaluations. In addition, the project must include a national dissemination strategy to share promising practices, outcomes, and resources across the country, and it should work toward developing and recommending nationwide standards for services for children exposed to domestic violence.
The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically means ACF anticipates substantial involvement during the project period (for example, collaboration on priorities, alignment with FVPSA guidance, and coordination with other federally supported efforts). Only one award was expected. Total estimated funding was $250,000, with an award floor of $150,000 and a ceiling of $250,000, and there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The CFDA program number listed is 93.592 (Family Violence Prevention and Services/Discretionary).
Eligible applicants were private, nonprofit organizations, including faith-based organizations and FVPSA-funded State Domestic Violence Coalitions, as long as they could demonstrate a documented history of successful work addressing domestic violence or children exposed to domestic violence and had the capacity to function as a national resource provider. Applicants also needed documented experience providing, or a demonstrated capacity to provide, national-scope training and technical assistance to State and Tribal Domestic Violence Coalitions and other nonprofit entities with domestic violence expertise. Individuals and foreign entities were not eligible.
Key administrative details include: Funding Opportunity Number HHS-2010-ACF-ACYF-EV-0085, posted June 15, 2010, with an original and current closing date of July 30, 2010 (with electronic submissions due by 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time via Grants.gov).
