Opportunity Summary:
The OVC FY 16 Project Beacon Training and Technical Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number OVC-2016-9287) is a discretionary funding announcement from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Justice Programs, Office for Victims of Crime (USDOJ-OJP-OVC). It was posted on April 22, 2016, created the same day, and had an application closing date of June 21, 2016. The award is offered as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in guiding or coordinating aspects of the project during the period of performance rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back.
This solicitation is designed to fund a single organization to act as the training and technical assistance provider for grantees funded under OVCs FY 2016 Project Beacon: Increasing Services to American Indian and Alaska Native Victims of Sex Trafficking. In practical terms, Project Beacon focuses on improving direct services for American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) victims of sex trafficking in urban areas, and this companion award supports that work by strengthening the skills, knowledge, and operational capacity of the Project Beacon service providers. The core purpose is not to deliver direct victim services itself, but to equip and continuously support Project Beacon grantees so they can provide stronger, more effective, and more culturally responsive services to AI/AN survivors of sex trafficking.
The selected recipient is expected to deliver ongoing education, training, support, and guidance to Project Beacon grantees throughout the life of their awards. This can reasonably include structured trainings, individualized technical assistance, resource development, peer learning opportunities, and problem-solving support tailored to the challenges of serving AI/AN trafficking victims in urban environments. The emphasis on ongoing assistance signals that OVC is looking for a sustained, hands-on capacity-building approach rather than one-time training events.
Funding is capped at an award ceiling of $450,000, with one award expected. The program is associated with CFDA number 16.320 and falls under funding activity categories that include Income Security and Social Services as well as Law, Justice, and Legal Services, reflecting the intersection of victim services and justice-system responses common to anti-trafficking work. Eligibility is listed as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," meaning the solicitation anticipated eligibility details beyond standard applicant categories, but those specific conditions are not included in the excerpt provided.
