Opportunity Summary:
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 International Programs to Combat Child Trafficking in Ghana - NGOs opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number AT ATC 15 006) is a discretionary grant competition released by the U.S. Department of State, Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons (often referred to as J/TIP). The program is focused specifically on anti-trafficking work, with an emphasis on combating child trafficking in Ghana. The announcement is framed as a request for full proposals, meaning applicants were expected to submit a complete, detailed project proposal rather than a short concept note, and to follow the formal requirements laid out in the full solicitation document referenced in the posting.
The funding mechanism is a grant, and the activity category is listed as "Other," clarified as Anti-Trafficking in Persons, under CFDA 19.019 (International Programs to Combat Human Trafficking). The opportunity does not require cost sharing or matching funds, which can make it more accessible to organizations that do not have unrestricted funds available to contribute toward project costs. Awards were expected to range from a minimum (award floor) of $50,000 up to a maximum (award ceiling) of $2,090,000, signaling that the program could support both smaller targeted interventions and larger, multi-component projects depending on the approach and scope proposed.
Eligibility is described as "unrestricted" in the basic listing, meaning it is broadly open, but with the important caveat that applicants must consult the full solicitation for specific eligibility rules and conditions. One explicit restriction is that the solicitation does not include International Organizations (IOs). Beyond that, the formal announcement would govern what types of entities qualify (for example, nonprofit NGOs, potentially universities or other entities if permitted), and would likely include additional expectations about organizational capacity, relevant experience, proposed partnerships, and compliance with U.S. government grant requirements.
In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted on June 19, 2015 (with a creation date of June 22, 2015). The original and current closing date was September 30, 2015, and the opportunity was archived on October 30, 2015. Practically, that means applications had to be fully submitted by the September deadline through the appropriate federal grant submission systems and in accordance with the solicitation instructions, including any required forms, narratives, budgets, and attachments.
For access and application support, the posting directs applicants to the full announcement via an additional information link titled "Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 International Programs to Combat Child Trafficking in Ghana - NGOs." It also provides multiple avenues for technical assistance if applicants had trouble retrieving the announcement or submitting through federal platforms. GrantSolutions support was available via phone (866-577-0771 or 202-401-5282) and email (help@grantsolutions.gov) during weekday business hours Eastern Time, while the Grants.gov help desk was available 24/7 (with phone numbers 800-518-4726 domestically or 606-545-5035 internationally, and email support@grants.gov). For programmatic questions tied to J/TIP, the announcement lists agency contacts including Rebecca Henenlotter (HenenlotterR@state.gov, 202-312-9670), Tracie Hill (HillT2@state.gov, 202-216-5801), and Theresa Eugene (EugeneT@state.gov), along with Grants.gov customer support.
Overall, the opportunity represents a sizeable U.S. government funding stream aimed at reducing and responding to child trafficking in Ghana through NGO-led programming, with flexible award sizes, no mandatory cost share, and standard federal submission and compliance expectations governed by the full solicitation package.
