Opportunity Information: Apply for O OVW 2025 172422

The OVW Fiscal Year 2025 National Tribal Clearinghouse on Sexual Assault Invitation to Apply is a discretionary funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women (OVW), focused on supporting the National Tribal Clearinghouse on Sexual Assault (NTCSA). The NTCSA exists to provide training and technical assistance related to sexual assault against American Indian and Alaska Native women, with an emphasis on strengthening the capacity of Tribal communities and the organizations that serve them. A major part of the program is delivering practical, accessible resources to service providers, grassroots organizations, and Tribal stakeholders through an established online platform.

The funded work centers on maintaining and enhancing a dedicated NTCSA website that functions as a hub for information and skill-building. Key components of that platform include a resource library (to collect and share publications, tools, and materials relevant to addressing sexual assault in Tribal contexts), a learning management system (to host structured trainings and courses), a podcast (to share timely discussions, perspectives, and knowledge from the field), and a speakers bureau (to help connect communities and organizations with subject matter experts for events and training needs). The overall aim is to make high-quality, culturally relevant training and technical assistance easy to find and use, while supporting effective responses to sexual assault in American Indian and Alaska Native communities.

This opportunity will be issued as a cooperative agreement, meaning OVW typically expects substantial involvement in the funded project through collaboration, oversight, and coordination during the project period rather than providing funds with minimal federal interaction. The program falls under the Law, Justice and Legal Services category and is associated with CFDA number 16.027. The funding opportunity number is O-OVW-2025-172422.

Only one organization is eligible to apply: Minnesota Indian Womens Sexual Assault Coalition. OVW expects to make a single award under this solicitation, with an award ceiling of $1,000,000. The original application closing date is July 8, 2025, and the opportunity record was created on May 22, 2025.
