Opportunity Summary:
The OVW FY 2010 Services to Advocate For and Respond to Youth Program was a discretionary grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women (OVW). Its core purpose was to support community-based efforts that serve youth who have experienced sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking. In practical terms, the program was designed to strengthen specialized services for young victims and improve how communities respond to youth-centered violence, aligning with OVW and DOJ public safety and victim service priorities within the broader category of law, justice, and legal services.
This solicitation (Funding Opportunity Number 2010-OVW-2552) anticipated making around 50 awards, with an estimated total funding pool of $4,789,000. Individual awards could be as large as $300,000, and there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award. The opportunity was posted and created on March 11, 2010, with an original and final application deadline of April 22, 2010. The funding announcement was later archived on May 22, 2010, indicating it was no longer open for applications after that period.
Eligibility focused on organizations positioned to deliver youth-specific intervention or prevention services in a community setting. Eligible applicants included federally recognized Native American tribal governments, other Native American tribal organizations (excluding federally recognized tribal governments), and nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (specifically excluding institutions of higher education). The solicitation also indicated that additional eligible applicant types might exist under the notice's "Additional Information on Eligibility" section, with the key emphasis being community-based organizations that specialize in prevention or intervention services for youth impacted by these forms of violence.
Administratively, the award instrument type was a grant, and the opportunity category was discretionary, meaning OVW would competitively review applications rather than allocate funds by formula.
