Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2010 ICAC Program grant opportunity, titled "Law Enforcement Strategies for Protecting Children from Commercial Sexual Exploitation," was a discretionary funding competition offered by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Justice Programs, through the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention. Its central purpose was to strengthen law enforcement strategies that protect children from commercial sexual exploitation, aligning with DOJ's broader mission to safeguard children and disrupt offenders and networks involved in child sexual exploitation. The award mechanism was a cooperative agreement, which typically signals that OJJDP expected to have an active role in guiding, coordinating, or substantially involving itself in key aspects of the funded work, rather than simply providing funds with minimal ongoing interaction.
The opportunity was posted on March 9, 2010 (created March 8, 2010), with an application closing date of May 19, 2010, and it was later archived on June 18, 2010. OJJDP anticipated making up to four awards, with an estimated total program funding level of $1,200,000. The maximum amount available per award (the award ceiling) was $300,000. The funding activity category was identified as Law, Justice and Legal Services, and the program was associated with CFDA number 16.543, Missing Children s Assistance. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for applicants, meaning applicants were not required to provide a specified financial match as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility for this funding was highly restricted and limited exclusively to the established Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) network. Specifically, OJJDP stated it would accept applications only from the existing 61 ICAC Task Forces and from ICAC affiliate law enforcement agencies that had two key items in place: (1) a valid memorandum of understanding (MOU), and (2) a letter of support from the commander of the regional or state ICAC Task Force agency. Applicants were required to include copies of the MOU and the letter of support with their application package. OJJDP explicitly indicated that it would accept no other applications outside this defined group, making the competition effectively internal to the ICAC task force structure and its formally affiliated partners.
In practical terms, the grant was designed to reinforce targeted, operational law enforcement approaches within the ICAC framework to address commercial sexual exploitation of children, likely supporting activities such as investigative enhancements, coordination across jurisdictions, and specialized tactics that help identify victims and apprehend offenders in cases involving exploitation connected to online and technology-facilitated crimes. The announcement emphasized protection of children from commercial sexual exploitation as the driving program goal, situating the effort within OJJDP s broader role of supporting initiatives that prevent victimization, improve investigative capacity, and strengthen multiagency responses to crimes against children.
For technical assistance or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed program contact was Mr. Christopher Holloway, identified as a Program Manager, with an agency contact email provided in the original posting.
