Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2011 TA Program To Address Commercial Sexual Exploitation/Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking (Funding Opportunity Number OJJDP 2011 3062) is a discretionary Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention initiative designed to strengthen the national response to commercial sexual exploitation (CSE) and domestic minor sex trafficking (DMST) involving both girls and boys. Rather than funding direct service delivery in a single locality, the emphasis is on building the capacity of OJJDP grantees and other organizations across the field by providing structured, high-quality technical assistance that helps communities prevent, identify, and respond to the sexual victimization of minors. The opportunity is issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning the federal agency is expected to have substantial involvement in shaping or guiding the work during the award period, which often includes coordinated planning, shared priorities, and ongoing collaboration with OJJDP.
The core purpose of the program is to support one organization, or a consortium of organizations, to function as a technical assistance provider and resource hub for entities working on CSE/DMST. The selected awardee would be expected to deliver education and training opportunities, provide expert consultations, facilitate peer-to-peer networking, and develop or curate practical resources that can be used by practitioners and communities. The technical assistance is meant to be tailored, recognizing that communities differ in demographics, infrastructure, service capacity, and patterns of exploitation, and that effective responses must be adapted to local realities. In practical terms, this kind of assistance often includes guidance on victim-centered and trauma-informed approaches, cross-system coordination among juvenile justice, child welfare, law enforcement, schools, healthcare, and community providers, and strategies for improving identification of exploited youth and strengthening referral pathways to appropriate services.
Funding for the program has an award ceiling of $450,000, with no stated award floor, and OJJDP anticipated making a single award. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. The funding activity category is Law, Justice and Legal Services, and the associated CFDA number is 16.730 (Reduction and Prevention of Children’s Exposure to Violence), situating the work within broader federal efforts to reduce violence and victimization impacting children and adolescents. The program is authorized under 42 USC 5771, et seq., which provides the statutory basis for OJJDP to support these activities.
Eligibility is broad and includes nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (including faith-based, community, and tribal organizations), for-profit organizations, and institutions of higher education (public, state-controlled, private, and tribal institutions). Small businesses and other listed organizational categories may also apply. A key condition is that for-profit organizations must agree to waive any profit or fees for services, reinforcing that federal funds under this opportunity are intended to support public-purpose technical assistance rather than generate profit.
The solicitation was posted and created on June 3, 2011, with an application deadline of July 5, 2011, and an archive date of August 4, 2011. Applicants needing help accessing the full announcement were directed to contact OJJDP, and questions about solicitation requirements could be addressed to Karen Bachar in the Child Protection Division at 202-514-4403 or via email at Karen.Bachar@usdoj.gov. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as an investment in field-wide infrastructure: selecting a lead entity capable of delivering specialized training, consultation, networking, and resource development so that agencies and community organizations are better equipped to address CSE and DMST affecting minors in diverse settings.
