Opportunity Information: Apply for O OVC 2023 171716
The OVC FY 2023 Integrated Services for Minor Victims of Human Trafficking grant is a discretionary funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office for Victims of Crime (OVC), under CFDA 16.320. It is designed to expand and strengthen community capacity to identify minor victims of human trafficking and to deliver coordinated, victim-centered, trauma-informed services that help young people achieve safety, stability, and longer-term recovery. The program reflects DOJ and OJP priorities around civil rights and racial equity, improving access to justice, supporting crime victims and people impacted by the justice system, strengthening community safety, and building trust between communities and law enforcement.
At its core, the solicitation focuses on improving both the quality and the quantity of services available to minors who have experienced trafficking, as defined by the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 (TVPA), as amended. The emphasis is not simply on adding more services, but on making sure services are developmentally appropriate for children and adolescents and tailored to the specific needs of each victim. This typically means integrated, wraparound support that can respond to complex trauma and the practical barriers minors face, including safety concerns, housing instability, medical and behavioral health needs, school disruption, legal issues, and ongoing risks of exploitation or re-trafficking.
OVC anticipates making about 13 awards, with an award ceiling of up to $950,000 per grant. The opportunity was created on April 5, 2023, with an original application closing date of June 6, 2023. Funding is issued as a grant, and the activity category is listed as Income Security and Social Services, signaling that the funded work is service-delivery oriented, even though it sits within the broader public safety and justice ecosystem.
Eligibility is broad and includes state, county, and city or township governments; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; tribal organizations that are not federally recognized governments; public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). This eligibility structure supports the expectation that effective responses to minor trafficking require cross-system collaboration, often involving local government agencies, youth-serving nonprofits, healthcare and behavioral health providers, schools, housing partners, and victim service organizations working together.
Overall, this grant opportunity is aimed at building or enhancing comprehensive service models for minor trafficking victims that are grounded in trauma-informed practice and individualized care. The intent is to ensure young victims are identified earlier, connected to the right mix of supports more quickly, and served in ways that respect their rights, dignity, culture, and lived experiences, while improving access to justice and promoting longer-term healing and empowerment.Apply for O OVC 2023 171716
