Opportunity Summary:

The G/TIP FY 2011 International Programs to Combat Trafficking in Persons grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number AT ATC 11 001) was issued by the U.S. Department of State, Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons. Its purpose is to support projects that strengthen and improve responses to trafficking in persons outside the United States. The program is categorized under anti-trafficking activities and is offered as a discretionary funding opportunity, with awards made through grants or cooperative agreements.

A key feature of this opportunity is its two-stage competitive application process. In the first stage, applicants submit a short, two-page Statement of Interest (SOI). These SOIs are screened for technical compliance and then reviewed competitively by a panel. Only applicants whose SOIs meet the requirements and score well in the initial review are invited to move to the second stage. In the second stage, the invited organizations submit full proposals that expand on the ideas presented in the SOI, and those full proposals are again reviewed by a panel for final funding consideration. This solicitation specifically launches the first stage and requests SOI submissions rather than full proposals upfront.

The announcement encourages applications from both U.S.-based and foreign organizations that have the capacity to run international anti-trafficking programs. Eligible applicant types include nonprofits (including 501(c)(3) organizations and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status), non-governmental organizations, public international organizations, and institutions of higher education (both public and private). The eligibility list also includes certain other entity types such as for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), small businesses, and Native American tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments), reflecting a broad applicant pool as long as the organization can carry out trafficking-in-persons work consistent with the program goals.

Funding levels were projected to be substantial, pending FY 2011 appropriations. The office anticipated making up to 50 awards, with an award floor of $50,000 and an award ceiling of $750,000 per project. The relevant CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number is 19.019, International Programs to Combat Human Trafficking. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated for applicants, meaning proposals are not required to include a non-federal match to be eligible.

The timeline for the first-stage submission was clear and firm. The opportunity was posted on October 21, 2010, and the Statement of Interest deadline was 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on Friday, November 19, 2010. Applicants were required to submit SOIs electronically through either www.grantsolutions.gov or www.grants.gov. For access issues with the full announcement, the listed contact was Mark Forstrom at G/TIP.
