Opportunity Information: Apply for O OVC 2021 19002
The OVC FY 2021 VOCA Victim Assistance Formula Grant is a U.S. Department of Justice funding opportunity administered by the Office for Victims of Crime to support victim assistance efforts nationwide. The program reflects DOJ priorities around advancing civil rights, expanding access to justice, strengthening services for crime victims, improving public safety in the face of evolving threats, and building trust between communities and law enforcement. The core purpose of the grant is to provide annual funding to each eligible state and territory victim assistance program so those jurisdictions can, in turn, support local victim service providers that deliver direct services to people harmed by crime.
This opportunity is a formula grant program, meaning awards are made to eligible state and territorial administering agencies rather than competed broadly among individual service organizations. While the opportunity is listed with an opportunity category of discretionary and uses the grant instrument type, the structure described is that OVC will issue an annual grant to every eligible state and territory program. The expected number of awards is 56, aligning with the number of state and territory recipients anticipated under VOCA victim assistance funding.
Funds are intended to flow from the state or territorial victim assistance program to eligible victim assistance programs within that jurisdiction. Eligible subrecipient programs are those operated by a public agency or a nonprofit organization, or a combination of public agencies and nonprofits, that provide services to victims of crime and meet additional statutory requirements. The eligibility standard is tied to federal law, specifically 34 U.S.C. 20103(b)(1), which outlines the baseline criteria that organizations must satisfy to be considered eligible victim assistance programs under VOCA.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is issued by the Department of Justice, Office for Victims of Crime, under Funding Opportunity Number O-OVC-2021-19002. It is associated with CFDA number 16.575 and falls under the funding activity category of Income Security and Social Services. The solicitation was created on May 19, 2021, with an original closing date of July 6, 2021. The award ceiling is listed as 0, which typically indicates there is not a single fixed maximum award amount posted in the notice because allocations are determined by formula and the total amount available varies based on appropriations and program calculations rather than a standard cap per award.
In practical terms, the main applicants for this funding are state governments and the designated state or territorial agencies responsible for administering victim assistance funds. Organizations that provide direct victim services generally do not apply to OVC for this particular opportunity; instead, they seek funding through their state or territorial VOCA administering agency once the formula funds are awarded and made available for subawards.Apply for O OVC 2021 19002
