Opportunity Summary:

The OVC FY 10 Mass Casualty and Violence at Home and Abroad Conference grant opportunity was a discretionary Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) solicitation to fund the planning and delivery of the OVC Assisting Victims of Crime 2011 Conference, specifically focused on mass casualty events and mass violence occurring both domestically and internationally. OVC intended to support a single organization through a cooperative agreement, meaning the awardee would not work independently but would coordinate closely with OVC throughout the conference development process, including major decisions about program content, structure, and implementation.

OVC planned to make one award totaling $655,000, which also served as the maximum award amount (the award ceiling). The purpose of the funded project was to design and execute a 2.5 to 3 day, state-of-the-art training conference featuring national experts. The agenda was expected to include keynote presentations and workshops centered on multidisciplinary responses and victim-centered approaches to assisting victims of mass violence. In practical terms, this focus implies training that brings together professionals from multiple systems (such as victim services, law enforcement, emergency management, behavioral health, medical services, and other allied fields) while emphasizing practices that prioritize victims needs, safety, and access to appropriate supports in the aftermath of large-scale violent incidents.

Eligible applicants were broadly defined to include a range of public and nonprofit entities and higher education institutions. Specifically, eligible applicants included state governments, county governments, and city or township governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education and private institutions of higher education; and nonprofits both with and without 501(c)(3) status (so long as they were not institutions of higher education when applying under the nonprofit category). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to provide a specified non-federal contribution to be eligible or competitive under the basic funding terms described.

From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted on May 20, 2010, and the application deadline was July 15, 2010, with an archive date of August 14, 2010. The funding opportunity number was OVC 2010 2769, and the associated CFDA number listed was 16.321 (Antiterrorism Emergency Reserve), reflecting the programmatic connection to victim assistance needs arising from terrorism or mass violence-related incidents. Applicants were encouraged to start early ahead of the deadline, which is typical for federal submissions that require registrations, compliance checks, and electronic submission steps through Grants.gov.

For support, technical submission help was directed to the Grants.gov Customer Support Hotline (1-800-518-4726) and support@grants.gov, available 24/7 except federal holidays. Programmatic and solicitation-related questions were routed to Greg Morris, OVC Lead Victim Justice Program Specialist, at 202-616-3458 or greg.morris@usdoj.gov.
