OVC FY 06 Public Awareness in Underserved Communities

OVC offers $350,000 for up to 7 awards, ranging from $25,000 to $50,000, to raise the awareness of underserved populations, particularly socially isolated immigrant communities, about victims’ rights and how to access crime victim services. Favorable consideration will be given to applicants partnering with one or more ethnic community-based or faith-based organizations with close ties to the targeted audience. Note: Applications that focus on prevention will not receive strong consideration for funding. A private non-profit organization does not need to have 501(c)(3) status to apply for grant funding under this solicitation.
