Opportunity Summary:
The FY2008 Discretionary Grants for the Family Violence Prevention and Services Program (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2008 ACF ACYF EV 0066) is a federal discretionary funding opportunity run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF). The program is offered as a cooperative agreement and falls under the Income Security and Social Services category (CFDA 93.592). The core purpose of this set of discretionary grants is to support efforts connected to the Family Violence Prevention and Services Program, which generally focuses on addressing domestic violence and related family violence needs through services, prevention, and system support activities, depending on the specific priority area described in the full announcement.
A key point in this notice is that it is a modification to the originally published announcement. The change affects the application requirements in Section IV, titled Application and Submission Information, specifically item 2, Content and Form of Application Submission, for Priority Areas 1 through 3. The practical impact of the modification is a firm page limit: applications are limited to 60 pages. Applicants are directed to consult the published modification at the ACF website for the exact revised instructions and any nuances about what counts toward the limit and how the required content should be organized for those priority areas.
Funding details indicate an estimated total of $2,900,000 available under this opportunity, with an expected 10 awards. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is listed as $425,000, and there is no stated minimum award amount (award floor is $0). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility, although the full announcement may still encourage leveraging other resources.
The timeline for this competition shows a posted date of May 29, 2008, with a closing date of July 14, 2008 (the same date is shown as both the original and current closing date). A critical submission instruction applies to electronic submissions through Grants.gov: applications must be submitted no later than 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The opportunity was later archived on August 13, 2008, which generally indicates it is no longer open for applications.
Eligibility is broad but varies by priority area, so applicants are expected to check the full announcement for the specific eligibility rules tied to Priority Areas 1 through 3 and any other priority areas included in the competition. Eligible applicant types listed include state governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education); and nonprofit organizations without 501(c)(3) status (also other than institutions of higher education). The announcement also highlights additional eligible institution types such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic Serving Institutions, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, and it explicitly notes that faith-based and community organizations are eligible to apply. Foreign entities are not eligible under this announcement.
