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. Program performance measures under the Measuring Effectiveness Initiative: VAWA Measuring Effectiveness Initiative webpage. Program-specific sections in OVW's most recent report to Congress on the effectiveness of VAWA grant programs. What's New About this OVW Program The VAWA Technical Amendments Act of 2022 amended the definition of "tribal coalition" (34 U.S.C. § 12291(a)(42)) and the authorizing language for the Tribal Coalitions Program (34 U.S.C. § 10441(d)) to include certain organizations addressing domestic violence and sexual assault against Native Hawaiian women through services to Native Hawaiian communities. See Pub. L. No. 117-315, 136 Stat. 4404. These changes were effective on December 28, 2022, and therefore apply to FY 2023 Tribal Coalitions funding.
