Maryland Coalition Against Sexual Assault Receives Federal Grant
- 9/24/2008
|
Washington, DC -- The Maryland Coalition Against Sexual Assault was awarded a grant of more than $ 82,000.00 from the Federal Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women. The Maryland Coalition will receive this grant which is designed to support the efforts of state coalitions to both organize victims’ services and work with other entities to take action on issues related to violence against women in their area. State coalitions operate on multiple levels to address violence against women and act as an important resource to local programs and state agencies. The Grants to Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence Coalitions Program was authorized by the Violence Against Women Act of 2005 (VAWA). This program supports state coalition efforts to coordinate victim services within each state and local entities to respond to violence against women’s issues affecting their jurisdictions. State coalitions have played a critical role in advancing the goals of VAWA, serving as a collective voice to end violence against women through collaboration with federal, state and local organizations. |
