Opportunity Summary:
The OJJDP FY 2015 VOCA Training and Technical Assistance for Child Abuse Prosecutors grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number OJJDP 2015 4128) is a discretionary, national-level cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention. Its purpose is to support a single national training and technical assistance program aimed at improving how child abuse cases are investigated and prosecuted in the criminal justice system. The focus is specifically on strengthening the skills and effectiveness of attorneys and other professionals involved in the criminal prosecution of child abuse, with the broader goal of improving outcomes in these complex and sensitive cases. The program is authorized under the Victims of Child Abuse Act, 42 U.S.C. Section 13003, and falls under CFDA 16.758 (Improving the Investigation and Prosecution of Child Abuse and the Regional and Local Children's Advocacy Centers).
This solicitation anticipates one award, and the funding amount is fixed: an estimated total of $900,000, with an award ceiling and floor both set at $900,000. In other words, the program is structured as a single, fully funded award rather than a range of possible award sizes. No cost sharing or matching requirement is listed, which means applicants are not required to provide matching funds as a condition of eligibility or award. Because the funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, the recipient should expect a more collaborative relationship with OJJDP than a typical grant, often including substantial involvement by the federal agency in key aspects of planning, implementation, coordination, or oversight.
Eligibility is narrowly defined and limited to national organizations that have broad membership among attorneys who prosecute criminal cases in state courts, and that can demonstrate experience delivering training and technical assistance to prosecutors. While OJJDP encourages applications that bring together two or more entities, the lead applicant must be an eligible national organization and must retain primary responsibility for administering the award and managing the overall program. Partner organizations may participate as subrecipients. Only one application will be accepted per lead applicant, although subrecipients are permitted to appear across multiple proposals submitted by different lead applicants.
The timeline for the opportunity indicates it was posted and created on March 31, 2015, with an original and final closing date of May 29, 2015, and an archive date of June 28, 2015. Applicants were directed to the full announcement for complete details, and a Response Center email contact was provided for solicitation and submission assistance, including help accessing the full announcement electronically.
