Who Can Apply

Eligible applicants are limited to state administering agencies (SAAs) that administer Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) Victim Assistance or Compensation Program Formula Grants, authorized by 34 U.S.C. §§ 20102 and 20103(a) and (b). Other organizations are also eligible to apply for funding when such an application is in partnership with the SAA for the applicant’s state. All recipients and subrecipients (including any for-profit organizations) must forgo any profit or management fee. OVC welcomes applications under which two or more entities would carry out the federal award; however, only one entity may be the applicant. Any others must be proposed as subrecipients (subgrantees). The applicant must be the entity that would have primary responsibility for carrying out the award, including administering the funding and managing the entire project. OVC may elect to fund applications submitted under this FY 2018 solicitation in future fiscal years, dependent on, among other considerations, the merit of the applications and on the availability of appropriations.
