Description

This program is authorized by 34 U.S.C. § 20125. The Grants to Reduce Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual Assault, and Stalking on Campus Program (Campus Program) (CFDA# 16.525) encourages institutions of higher education to develop and strengthen effective security and investigation strategies to combat domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking on campus, develop and strengthen victim services in cases involving such crimes on campus, and develop and strengthen prevention education and awareness programs. By statute (34 U.S.C. 20125(a)(2)(C)), the Campus Program must ensure the equitable distribution of grants to TCUs and HBCUs; and, as a result of the 2022 VAWA reauthorization, a new set aside of 10% is designated for HBCUs. In addition, the FY 2022 and 2023 Consolidated Appropriations Acts created a 50% set aside for HBCUs, TCUs, and HSIs. To support HBCUs, HSIs, and TCUs in strengthening their institutional response to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking, OVW is launching the Strengthening Culturally Specific Campus' Approaches to Address Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual Assault, and Stalking Initiative (hereinafter referred to as the CSC Initiative). The project activities will focus on building the capacity of institutions that have never received a Campus Program grant award or whose most recent award was from FY 2017 or earlier to establish culturally relevant strategies in addressing domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking, including the development of effective response protocols and prevention programming. HBCUs, HSIs, and TCUs, whether eligible under this initiative or not, may apply under the regular FY 2023 Campus Program solicitation for the set-aside funds described above. (See Types of Applications for more information.) For additional information about this program and related performance measures, including how awards contribute to the achievement of program goals and objectives, see: OVW grant program information: OVW Grants and Programs Webpage.
