Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 13 Support to the Attorney Generals Task Force on American Indian/Alaska Native Children Exposed to Violence grant opportunity is a one-time discretionary cooperative agreement designed to fund a single organization to provide hands-on operational and professional support to a federal task force focused on violence affecting American Indian and Alaska Native children. Administered by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) in partnership with the Department of the Interior (DOI), Indian Affairs, the project sits within the Department of Justices Defending Childhood Initiative and is aimed at helping the Attorney Generals Task Force gather community-driven information and translate it into a formal product that can guide policy.
At its core, the funded organization is expected to do three major things. First, it must help the AI/AN Task Force conduct public hearings and listening sessions in American Indian and Alaska Native communities. These sessions are intended to give the Task Force a clearer and more complete understanding of how AI/AN children experience and are impacted by violence, including both direct victimization and exposure as witnesses. Second, the awardee must provide primary technical writing services for the Task Forces final report, producing a polished, organized document that the Task Force can rely on when developing specific policy recommendations. Third, the awardee must provide the logistical and administrative support needed for the Task Force to function effectively and for the hearings to run smoothly, which typically includes coordinating schedules, preparing materials, supporting meeting documentation, and ensuring deliverables are completed on time.
The solicitation defines "exposure to violence" broadly, emphasizing that it includes being a victim or a witness and can involve sexual abuse, physical abuse, intimate partner violence, school violence, and community violence. This wide definition signals that the work is meant to capture the full range of environments where children may be harmed or traumatized, not just incidents that occur within the home or that lead to formal justice involvement.
Because the funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, the recipient is expected to work in close coordination with federal partners rather than operating independently. The announcement highlights especially close coordination with Department of Justice and Department of the Interior staff and specifically references the designated federal official (DFO) from the Department of Justice, indicating ongoing federal involvement in planning, oversight, and ensuring deadlines and deliverables are met. In practical terms, applicants would need to demonstrate strong project management capacity, experience working with tribal communities in culturally appropriate ways, and the ability to produce high-quality written products under federal timelines.
The total estimated funding for the opportunity is $750,000, with an award ceiling of $750,000 and one expected award. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The opportunity is tied to CFDA 16.730, Reduction and Prevention of Childrens Exposure to Violence, and is authorized under the Department of Justice Appropriations Act, 2013 (Pub. L. No. 113-6). The posted date was June 14, 2013, with a closing date of July 29, 2013, and the opportunity was later archived on August 28, 2013.
Eligibility is broad but oriented toward organizational entities that can carry out national-level coordination and technical writing. Eligible applicants include Native American tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments), public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than higher education institutions), small businesses, and for-profit organizations that are not small businesses. The solicitation explicitly invites both tribal and non-tribal nonprofit and for-profit organizations, as well as tribal and non-tribal institutions of higher education, to apply. A key condition applies to for-profit applicants: they must agree to forgo any profit or management fee, reinforcing that the funding is meant to support service delivery and project outputs rather than generating commercial gain.
For applicant support, the announcement points interested parties to the Justice Information Center (JIC) for assistance, including phone, email, and live web chat during standard business hours and extended hours on the close date.
