Description

OJP is committed to advancing work that promotes civil rights and equity, increases access to justice, supports crime victims and individuals impacted by the justice system, strengthens community safety, protects the public from crime and evolving threats, and builds trust between law enforcement and the community. With this solicitation, OVC seeks applications for funding under the FY 2024 VOCA Victim Assistance Formula Grant Program. This program furthers the Department’s mission by providing grants to support the provision of services to victims of crime throughout the nation. OVC encourages SAAs to use VOCA funding within program parameters to affirmatively advance equity, civil rights, justice, and equal opportunity. In line with these goals, OVC particularly encourages SAAs to include American Indian and Alaska Native tribes in program planning and funding. This program furthers the DOJ’s mission to uphold the rule of law, to keep our country safe, and to protect civil rights.
