Opportunity Summary:
The OVW Fiscal Year 2010 Technical Assistance Program is a discretionary funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women (OVW), designed to strengthen the national response to sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking. Rather than focusing on direct service delivery, this program is aimed at building capacity across the field by funding organizations that can provide training, expert guidance, and practical problem-solving support to OVW grantees and allied professionals. In doing so, the program advances the broader mission of the Violence Against Women Act by helping programs and systems improve how they prevent violence, respond to victims, and implement effective, coordinated approaches.
Funding is offered through cooperative agreements, which generally means recipients should expect active involvement from OVW in shaping deliverables, priorities, and ongoing coordination during the project period. The overall emphasis is on the provision of training and technical assistance, which can include developing resources, delivering workshops or learning events, offering tailored consultation, and supporting grantees as they navigate implementation challenges in their communities and systems. The funding activity is categorized as “Other,” specifically clarified as technical assistance to the field on addressing the core forms of violence OVW covers.
The opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number OVW 2010 2480) was posted on June 24, 2010, with an application deadline of August 3, 2010, and an archive date of September 2, 2010. OVW anticipated making about 50 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $25,000,000 across all awards. The program is listed under CFDA 16.526, the OVW Technical Assistance Initiative. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which lowers the barrier for eligible organizations to apply and allows applicants to focus proposal budgets on the technical assistance activities and infrastructure needed to serve the field effectively.
Eligibility is limited to nonprofit national, tribal, or statewide organizations. This eligibility structure signals OVW’s intent to fund entities with sufficient scale, credibility, and reach to deliver consistent, high-quality technical assistance across multiple jurisdictions or throughout a state, within tribal contexts, or nationally. The program is therefore well-suited to organizations that already have specialized expertise in victim services, offender accountability, coordinated community responses, culturally specific services, legal and justice-system improvements, training design, or evaluation and implementation support connected to OVW-funded work.
For applicants or interested parties who had trouble accessing the full announcement at the time, OVW provided a point of contact through its grant support channel: Dan Hull, Grants Management Consultant, reachable by phone at 866-655-4482.
