Opportunity Information: Apply for OVW 2020 18234
The OVW Fiscal Year 2020 Grants to Engage Men and Boys as Allies in the Prevention of Violence Against Women and Girls Program (Funding Opportunity Number OVW 2020 18234) is a discretionary grant program offered by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women (OVW). The core purpose of this opportunity is to support projects that mobilize men and boys as active partners in preventing violence against women and girls, with an emphasis on shifting community norms and strengthening prevention efforts before harm occurs. Rather than focusing primarily on direct services after violence has happened, this program centers on prevention strategies that help men and boys understand their role in ending violence and encourages them to work alongside women and girls as allies.
Funded projects are expected to use educational programming and community organizing approaches to address domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking. In practice, that can include structured curricula, workshops, trainings, campaigns, peer leadership models, and other community-based efforts that build knowledge, challenge harmful attitudes, and promote healthy, respectful behaviors and relationships. The “community organizing” element signals that OVW is interested in work that goes beyond one-time presentations and instead builds sustained engagement and local leadership, often through partnerships and coordinated community activities that can influence broader social norms.
Eligible applicants include county governments; city or township governments; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; Native American tribal organizations that are not federally recognized tribal governments; and nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education). This eligibility design reflects OVW’s goal of supporting a range of community-rooted entities that can reach local audiences and build durable prevention infrastructure, whether through government-led initiatives, tribal-led prevention efforts, or nonprofit-led education and organizing.
Awards under this opportunity were capped at an award ceiling of $500,000, with an anticipated 11 awards. The CFDA number associated with the program is 16.888. The solicitation was created on February 14, 2020, and the original application closing date was March 30, 2020. Overall, the program is structured to fund a limited number of sizable projects that can demonstrate a clear plan for engaging men and boys, partnering with women and girls, and delivering prevention-oriented education and organizing that addresses multiple forms of gender-based violence.Apply for OVW 2020 18234
