OVC FY 14 Vision 21 Tribal Community Wellness Centers: Serving Crime Victims' Needs
Applicants are required to submit applications through the Office of Justice Programs’ Grants Management System (GMS) instead of Grants.gov.
See "How to Apply" on page 21 of the solicitation for details.
OVC will make up to three awards of up to $660,000 each to tribes or
tribal nonprofit organizations to develop and implement a victim-centered Community Wellness framework that extends beyond crisis victim assistance to meet the longer-term, complex needs of victims, survivors, and their families.
The framework must include a Community Wellness Center that will offer, coordinate, or foster access to a continuum of resources and services that promote victim and community wellness, including a full range of intervention, treatment, health and wellness, prevention, educational and economic development, and cultural resources for the community.
Those applying are urged to begin in advance of the July 15, 2014, deadline.
