Opportunity Information: Apply for O OVC 2021 92006
The OVC FY 2021 Building State Technology Capacity opportunity is a discretionary Department of Justice grant from the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) designed to help states strengthen the technology they use to support crime victims. The underlying aim aligns with DOJ priorities around advancing civil rights, increasing access to justice, supporting victims, protecting the public from crime and emerging threats, and improving trust between law enforcement and the community. In practical terms, the program focuses on statewide technology efforts that make it easier for victims to find, reach, and receive services, while also helping victim service organizations work more efficiently and effectively.
This solicitation specifically targets the state agencies that administer Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) funding, meaning VOCA Formula Assistance and Compensation Program State Administering Agencies (SAAs). These eligible state-level entities are expected to use the award to implement statewide technology programs rather than isolated, single-site projects. The intent is to modernize and improve the digital and operational capacity of victim services across a whole state, with emphasis on boosting accessibility, responsiveness, service quality, and innovation. Examples of what this kind of funding typically supports include technology upgrades, shared platforms, improved client-facing tools, and systems that reduce barriers for victims trying to access help, though the core requirement is that the effort is statewide in scope and directly tied to improving victim access and service delivery.
Awards are made as cooperative agreements, which generally means OVC expects a higher level of federal involvement than a standard grant, such as collaboration, monitoring, and programmatic guidance during the project period. The funding instrument is tied to the Income Security and Social Services activity category and is listed under CFDA number 16.582. The opportunity anticipated making up to 6 awards, with an award ceiling of $600,000 per award, indicating a competitive program intended to fund a limited number of state technology initiatives at a meaningful but capped level.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number O-OVC-2021-92006, with the solicitation posted on May 3, 2021, and an original application closing date of June 17, 2021. Overall, the grant is meant to help states build and scale technology capacity that improves how quickly and effectively victim service organizations can respond to victims, how easily victims can access services, and how consistently high-quality services can be delivered across the state.Apply for O OVC 2021 92006
