Opportunity Summary:

The OVW FY 2010 STOP Violence Against Women Formula Grant Program is a mandatory federal grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women (OVW). It is designed to help states support local and statewide efforts that prevent and respond to violent crimes against women by improving how the criminal justice system and victim service providers handle these cases. The core purpose is to strengthen law enforcement and prosecution strategies while also expanding and improving victim services for crimes that disproportionately affect women, such as domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking. In practice, this program is meant to help communities build more coordinated, effective responses that both hold offenders accountable and increase safety and access to services for survivors.

This opportunity is a formula grant program (CFDA 16.588), meaning funds are allocated to eligible jurisdictions based on a predetermined distribution method rather than through a fully competitive process. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is Law, Justice and Legal Services. The listing indicates an expected 56 awards, aligning with participation by states and comparable jurisdictions that typically receive formula funding. The eligible applicants are state governments, which generally then administer the funds and make subawards or otherwise direct resources to support local programs, multidisciplinary collaborations, and system improvements consistent with program requirements.

A cost sharing or matching requirement applies, so states must plan for and document the required match as part of their application and award management approach. The announcement was posted and created on December 9, 2009, with an application closing date of January 28, 2010, and it was later archived on February 27, 2010. The official funding opportunity number is OVW 2010 2392, and the full solicitation was made available through OVW, with an additional information link pointing to the FY10 STOP solicitation PDF on the OVW website.

For applicant support or access issues with the announcement, OVW provided direct contact options through its main line at 202 307 6026 and the program email address ovw.stop@usdoj.gov.
