OVW FY 2008 Technical Assistance Program Call for Concept Papers

The U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women (OVW), has recently announced the OVW FY 2008 Technical Assistance Program Call for Concept Papers. The primary purpose of the OVW TA Program is to provide direct assistance to grantees and subgrantees to enhance the success of local projects they are implementing with VAWA grant funds. In addition, OVW is focused on building the capacity of criminal justice and victim services organizations to respond effectively to sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking and to foster partnerships between organizations that have not traditionally worked together to address violence against women, such as faith- and community- based organizations. Technical assistance projects must be national or regional in focus. Projects that are limited to statewide or regional activities within a state will not be considered. Faith- and community-based organizations are eligible to apply. View solicitation.

Deadlines:

For assistance with the requirements of this solicitation, contact the Office on Violence Against Women at (202) 307-6026.
