What This Grant Funds

Enhance the Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) Victim Assistance toolkit and Victim Compensation guidebook by using field-generated comments and suggestions to shape these two tools to reflect technological changes in the field since their creation and include new regulations, and performance and grant requirements. These tools are invaluable resources for new state VOCA administrators and managers. Two separate competitive 24-month cooperate agreements will be awarded to eligible entities who demonstrate a deep understanding of the relationship between VOCA formula funding, VOCA State Administrating Agencies and VOCA sub recipients.

Who Can Apply

Eligible applicants are limited to national associations; private nonprofit organizations, including faith-based and community-based organizations; colleges and universities; public agencies; and tribal organizations and governments that can demonstrate a deep understanding of VOCA formula and discretionary funding, VOCA State Administrating Agencies (SAA), and VOCA subrecipient requirements, and that possess the staff, resources, and capability to plan and implement this project. OVC welcomes applications that involve two or more entities that will carry out the funded Federal award activities; however, one eligible entity must be the applicant and the other(s) must be proposed as subrecipient(s). The applicant must be the entity with primary responsibility for administering the funding and managing the entire project. Only one application per lead applicant will be considered; however, a subrecipient may be part of multiple proposals.
