💡 GrantQuick Tip

CPC programs only exist in countries that have signed bilateral compacts with the U.S. — currently a handful of countries. If you're not already operating in a CPC country or an upcoming CPC country, this isn't relevant. Check the TIP Office website for current compact countries. The winning organizations are usually the same 3-5 large international NGOs (IJM, World Vision, etc.) with existing government relationships in those specific countries.

Competitiveness: Very high — limited to CPC countries with very large awards. Only organizations with existing presence in specific compact countries can compete.

What This Grant Funds

The TIP Office invites applications for projects to combat all forms of child trafficking as part of a potential Child Protection Compact (CPC) between the United States and a recipient country proposed by the applicant. A CPC is a multi-year plan developed jointly by the United States and another government to strengthen capacity to effectively prosecute and convict child traffickers, provide comprehensive care and support for child victims, and prevent child trafficking in all its forms.
