Current Funding Opportunities

The purpose of this program is to establish trauma recovery centers in communities significantly impacted by violence with a focus on addressing the urgent need for trauma recovery support and access to victim compensation for those who traditionally will not seek it out or are unaware that assistance is available.

OVC seeks field-generated proposals that offer innovative solutions that will increase access to victim services and expand the options available to crime victims, especially in underserved communities. This solicitation encourages prospective applicants to partner with nontraditional partners that may not be typically associated with the victim services field.

OVC seeks to fund organizations to provide for the basic needs of crime victims, such as transportation, temporary and transitional housing, clothing, food, and other items necessary for their well-being, healing, or safety. Applicants should have experience providing direct services to crime victims in communities that have been historically marginalized, adversely affected by inequality, and disproportionately impacted by crime, violence, and victimization.
