Opportunity Summary:
The OVC FY 09 Tribal Victim Assistance Training and Technical Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number OVC 2009 2165) is a discretionary funding program from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office for Victims of Crime (OVC). It is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected recipient should expect an active partnership with OVC in carrying out the work rather than a hands-off grant relationship. The overall purpose is to strengthen the capacity and effectiveness of organizations that previously received funding under the FY 2009 Tribal Victim Assistance Discretionary Grant Program by offering them practical, skills-based training and ongoing technical assistance.
Funding is set at an estimated total of $500,000, with an award ceiling of $500,000 and an expected single award (one applicant will be selected). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the barrier for eligible organizations to participate without needing to commit non-federal funds. The program falls under the Law, Justice and Legal Services activity category and is associated with CFDA number 16.582 (Crime Victim Assistance/Discretionary Grants).
The work to be funded centers on delivering comprehensive training and technical assistance specifically tailored to tribal victim service settings. In practical terms, this means the recipient is expected to help existing FY 2009 tribal victim assistance grantees build real-world skills, improve program operations, and address implementation challenges as they deliver services to victims. Because the target audience is current OVC-funded tribal victim assistance grantees, the training and technical assistance are intended to be directly applicable to day-to-day program delivery, compliance, and sustainability needs in American Indian and Alaska Native communities.
Eligibility is geared toward organizations with demonstrated experience working with American Indian and Alaska Native communities. Eligible applicant types include Native American tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments), nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), private institutions of higher education, and for-profit organizations other than small businesses. The announcement also highlights that eligible applicants may include tribal commercial and nonprofit organizations, tribal colleges and universities, and tribal consortiums, as long as they bring relevant experience and capacity to deliver specialized training and technical assistance in tribal contexts.
Key dates for the opportunity include a posted and created date of March 26, 2009, with an original and current closing date of May 5, 2009, and an archive date of June 4, 2009. Applicants needing help accessing the full announcement were directed to the Grants Management System (GMS) Support Hotline at 1-888-549-9901 (option 3), with support hours listed as Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
