Opportunity Information: Apply for O OVW 2025 172395
The OVW Fiscal Year 2025 Grants to Indian Tribal Governments Program is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women (OVW). It is designed specifically to strengthen how Tribal communities prevent and respond to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, sex trafficking, and stalking. The program recognizes that Tribal governments are best positioned to lead solutions that fit their community needs, and it supports efforts that improve victim services, increase offender accountability, and build coordinated community responses grounded in Tribal priorities and culture.
Eligibility is limited to Indian Tribal governments (federally recognized), authorized designees of Indian Tribal governments, and Tribal consortia. In other words, the funding is reserved for Tribal-led applicants rather than general state, local, or nonprofit applicants unless they are formally designated by an eligible Tribal government. The purpose is to ensure program design and implementation are driven by Tribal authority and tailored to the realities of violence in Tribal communities, including geographic isolation, limited access to services, jurisdictional complications, and the need for culturally specific victim advocacy and healing approaches.
This opportunity is issued as a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) within the Law, Justice and Legal Services activity category and is listed under CFDA/Assistance Listing number 16.587. The funding opportunity number is O-OVW-2025-172395. OVW anticipates making about 50 awards under this solicitation, with an award ceiling of up to $1,000,000 per award. The original application closing date is June 24, 2025, and the opportunity was created/posted on May 16, 2025.Apply for O OVW 2025 172395
