Opportunity Summary:
The OVW FY 2010 Community Defined Solutions to Violence Against Women Program is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women (OVW). It was previously known as the Grants to Encourage Arrest Policies and Enforcement of Protection Orders Program, and it continues that core public safety purpose by supporting stronger community and justice-system responses to sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking. The central idea is to help jurisdictions treat these offenses as serious criminal law violations and to improve how the full criminal justice system works together, including law enforcement, prosecutors, courts, and other justice partners. The program emphasis is on coordinated, systemwide approaches rather than isolated efforts by a single agency.
Funding is provided through a grant mechanism, with an estimated total of $50,000,000 available and an expectation of around 90 awards. Individual awards can be as high as $1,000,000, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement listed for applicants, which can make participation more feasible for governments working with limited discretionary funds. The program is categorized under Law, Justice, and Legal Services and is associated with CFDA number 16.590.
Eligible applicants include state governments, county governments, city or township governments, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments. The opportunity is designed specifically for public-sector entities and justice agencies and courts operating within those government structures. While the short description does not list required partnerships in detail, the program description makes clear that OVW is looking for coordinated involvement across the criminal justice system, which typically means applicants are expected to demonstrate collaboration among key stakeholders and a plan for implementation that improves consistency, enforcement, and victim safety across agencies.
Key dates for this FY 2010 solicitation include a posted and created date of January 7, 2010, with an application closing date of February 3, 2010. The archive date is March 5, 2010. The opportunity identification number is OVW 2010 2472, and the funding opportunity title is OVW FY 2010 Community Defined Solutions to Violence Against Women Program.
