Opportunity Information: Apply for O OVC 2021 02001
The OVC FY 2021 Services to Support Victims of Hate Crime and Strengthen Communities opportunity is a discretionary federal grant offered by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office for Victims of Crime (OVC), under CFDA 16.582. It is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the funder expects an active partnership with the recipient during the life of the project rather than a hands-off grant relationship. The overall purpose aligns with DOJ priorities around protecting civil rights, expanding access to justice, supporting victims of crime, addressing evolving public safety threats, and strengthening trust between law enforcement and the communities they serve. Within that larger mission, this opportunity focuses specifically on helping individuals, groups, and whole communities that have been harmed by hate crimes.
At the core of the program is an effort to identify and support field-generated, innovative strategies, approaches, and models that respond to the real-world needs of hate crime victims and impacted communities. Rather than prescribing one single program design, OVC is looking to fund work that emerges from practitioners and communities, including approaches that can be adapted across different local contexts. The funded entity is expected to function as a lead organization that both advances these promising practices and helps translate them into practical, on-the-ground services and community supports.
A key feature of this opportunity is that the main award recipient is responsible not only for implementing work directly, but also for supporting selected subrecipients. That support includes technical assistance and capacity-building, meaning the recipient would help subrecipients strengthen their ability to deliver effective victim services, build organizational infrastructure, improve coordination with partners, and sustain services over time. In practice, this can include developing tools and resources, providing training and coaching, supporting program design and evaluation, and helping subrecipients implement trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and victim-centered approaches appropriate for communities impacted by bias-motivated harm.
The grant is open to a broad range of eligible applicants, including public and private institutions of higher education, federally recognized tribal governments, other tribal organizations, nonprofit organizations (both with and without 501(c)(3) status), for-profit organizations (including small businesses), and other entities as described in the solicitation’s additional eligibility notes. This wide eligibility reflects the program’s recognition that effective hate crime victim support and community strengthening can be led by many types of organizations, including community-based providers, research and training institutions, tribal entities, and multidisciplinary partnerships.
From a funding perspective, the opportunity lists an award ceiling of $2,000,000 and anticipates making up to 10 awards. The opportunity was created on May 4, 2021, with an original closing date of June 18, 2021. Overall, the program can be understood as an OVC investment in scalable, community-informed solutions that improve services for hate crime victims while also reinforcing community resilience, collaboration, and trust-building in the wake of bias-driven violence and intimidation.Apply for O OVC 2021 02001
