Opportunity Summary:
The FY 2014 International Programs to Combat Trafficking in Persons Request for Statements of Interest (SOIs) is a U.S. Department of State funding opportunity issued by the Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons (often referred to as J/TIP). The opportunity invites organizations to submit Statements of Interest for anti-trafficking programming overseas under CFDA 19.019, International Programs to Combat Human Trafficking. It is a discretionary funding opportunity, and the planned award mechanism is a cooperative agreement or a grant, meaning applicants should be prepared for the possibility of more active federal involvement in project implementation and oversight than in a typical grant-only arrangement.
This solicitation is specifically an SOI request rather than a full proposal request, which generally signals an initial screening step where applicants summarize a proposed project concept, approach, and fit with program priorities before being invited (or not) to submit a full application. The announcement emphasizes that applicants must consult the full grant announcement for the complete requirements, eligibility conditions, and instructions, since the summary posting does not include those details. The overall program area is anti-trafficking in persons, which typically includes efforts to prevent trafficking, protect and assist survivors, and support prosecution and accountability measures, though the precise priorities and permissible activities are defined in the full solicitation text.
Key funding parameters are clearly stated. Individual awards were expected to range from a floor of $100,000 to a ceiling of $750,000. No cost sharing or matching requirement is listed, so applicants were not required to provide matching funds as a condition of eligibility, although voluntary cost share may still be addressed in the full announcement or may strengthen an application depending on how proposals are evaluated. The opportunity was posted on October 17, 2013, with an original and current closing date of November 18, 2013, and an archive date of December 18, 2013, indicating it is a historical funding notice from FY 2014 rather than an active opportunity today.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted in the public summary, meaning it was broadly open to many entity types, subject to any clarifications in the full solicitation. One explicit limitation is included: International Organizations (IOs) are not included in this solicitation. The notice instructs potential applicants to refer to the official solicitation for all eligibility details, which usually cover matters like applicant type, registration requirements, compliance certifications, and any geographic or thematic limitations on proposed activities.
For operational support and submission issues, the posting provides multiple points of contact. Applicants who had trouble accessing the announcement could contact the Grant Solutions Help Desk (by phone at 866-577-0771 or 202-401-5282, or by email at help@grantsolutions.gov) during business hours, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Eastern Time. Grants.gov assistance is also listed, with 24/7 support except federal holidays (1-800-518-4726 domestically, 606-545-5035 internationally, or support@grants.gov). Programmatic contacts at J/TIP are named as Chelsea Lord (LordC@state.gov, 202-312-9847) and Zach Winters (WintersZ@state.gov, 202-312-9837), which would be the appropriate channels for questions about the substance of the SOI, program alignment, or interpretation of the solicitation requirements.
In practical terms, this opportunity was a pathway for organizations to propose international anti-trafficking initiatives within a mid-sized award range, without a mandatory match, under State Department oversight. The critical next step for any applicant at the time would have been to review the complete solicitation document linked in the notice to understand the specific thematic priorities, required SOI format, evaluation criteria, geographic focus, reporting expectations, and any mandatory compliance elements tied to U.S. government funding for anti-trafficking work.
