I. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION


Statutory Authority


The statutory authority for this program is 42 U.S.C. § 10411, the Family Violence Prevention and Services Act (FVPSA).

Description


This FVPSA funding opportunity announcement (FOA), administered through the Administration on Children, Youth and Families’ (ACYF) Family and Youth Services Bureau (FYSB), is designed to assist Coalitions in their efforts to: 1) to confirm the federal commitment to reducing domestic violence; 2) to urge states, localities, cities, and the private sector to improve the responses to and the prevention of domestic violence and encourage stakeholders and service providers to plan toward an integrated service delivery approach that meets the needs of all victims, including those in underserved communities; 3) to provide for technical assistance and training relating to domestic violence programs; and 4) to increase public awareness about and prevention of domestic violence and increase the quality and availability of shelter and supportive services for victims of domestic violence and their dependents (45 CFR § 1370.20(a)).


The purpose of a Coalition is to provide education, support, and technical assistance to domestic violence service providers to enable the providers to establish and maintain shelter and supportive services for victims of domestic violence and their dependents; and to serve as an information clearinghouse, primary point of contact, and resource center on domestic violence for the state; and support the development of policies, protocols, and procedures to enhance domestic violence intervention and prevention in the State (45 CFR § 1370.20(b)(4)).


Trauma-Informed Practices and Interventions


In support of FYSB priorities, awards governed by this FOA and other current fiscal year expenditures are designed to ensure that effective interventions and trauma-informed practices are in place to build skills and capacities that contribute to the healthy, positive, and productive functioning of individuals and families. An important component of promoting social and emotional well-being includes addressing the impact of trauma, which can have a profound effect on the overall functioning of victims of family violence, domestic violence, dating violence and their dependents.


Coalitions are uniquely situated to provide support to domestic violence programs in order to ensure that trauma-informed interventions are at the core of working with victims and their children. As a part of trauma-informed programming, FVPSA requires that services must be provided on a voluntary basis and that no condition may be applied for the receipt of emergency shelter (42 U.S.C. § 10408(d)(2)). Further, grantees cannot impose conditions for admission to shelter by applying inappropriate screening methods (45 CFR § 1370.10(b)(10)). As Coalitions plan their training and technical assistance priorities, they must include responses that help support trauma-informed services among their member programs to ensure positive outcomes for all service populations. Coalitions are strongly encouraged to coordinate and collaborate with the FVPSA-funded resource centers that comprise the Domestic Violence Resource Network to infuse programs with best and promising practices on trauma-informed interventions.




Client Confidentiality


In order to ensure the safety of adult, youth, and child victims of family violence, domestic violence, or dating violence, and their families, FVPSA-funded programs must establish and implement policies and protocols for maintaining the confidentiality of records pertaining to any individual provided domestic violence services. Because it is required that the confidentiality of individuals receiving FVPSA services be protected, Coalitions should include activities to ensure that local programs maintain confidentiality consistent with best practices in the field and applicable federal, state, tribal, and local requirements.


FVPSA-funded programs cannot disclose any personally identifying information (PII) collected in connection with services; reveal PII without informed, written, reasonably time-limited consent; or require a victim to provide consent for release as a condition of eligibility for services (45 CFR § 1370.4(a)(1) – (3)). Further, grantees and subgrantees may share non-personally identifying information, in the aggregate, regarding services to clients and demographic non-personally identifying information in order to comply with federal, state, or tribal reporting, evaluation, or data collection requirements (45 CFR § 1370.4(d)).


Coordinated and Accessible Services


It is essential that community service providers, including those serving or representing underserved communities, are involved in the design and improvements of intervention and prevention activities to ensure that services are welcoming and accessible. FVPSA requires both States and Coalitions to work in partnership towards this goal. As part of the FOA for FVPSA funding to States for shelter and supportive services, States are required to involve community-based organizations that primarily serve underserved populations, including culturally- and linguistically-specific populations, to determine how such populations can assist the states in serving unmet needs. States must also consult with, and provide for the participation of Coalitions and Tribal Coalitions in State planning, including planning and monitoring of the distribution and administration of subgrant programs and projects; and with needs assessments to identify service gaps or problems and to develop appropriate response plans and programs (45 CFR § 1370.10(a)).


Coalitions receiving funds under this FOA will assist States in identifying underserved populations to work with States to unify planning and needs assessment so that comprehensive culturally-specific services are provided (45 CFR § 1370.20(c)(1)(ii). Coalitions are required to collaborate with service providers, community-based organizations, Tribes and Tribal Organizations to address the needs of family violence, domestic violence, and dating violence victims, and their dependents, who are members of racial and ethnic minority populations and underserved populations (42 U.S.C. § 10411(d)(3) and (d)(8)).


Coalition training and technical assistance priorities should focus on building the capacity of domestic violence programs within the state to provide inclusive and culturally relevant services for the underserved populations identified in their planning. Populations identified in planning should also be a part of determining the training and technical assistance priorities to improve the capacity of programs to serve such populations. As Coalitions undertake these activities, it is expected that the communities and populations noted above will be included in the coalitions’ boards, committees, and other activities to ensure they are part of the decision making to create and maintain fully coordinated and accessible services.


To comply with federal law, services must be widely accessible to all victims of family violence, domestic violence, dating violence, and their dependents. Grantees must not discriminate on the basis of age, sex, disability, race, color, national origin, or religion (42 U.S.C. § 10406(c)(2)).

No person shall on the ground of actual or perceived sex, including gender identity, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subject to discrimination under any program or activity funded in whole or in part through FVPSA (45 CFR § 1370.5(a)).

No person shall on the ground of actual or perceived sexual orientation be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subject to discrimination under any program or activity funded in whole or in part through FVPSA (45 CFR § 1370.5(c)).


The HHS Office for Civil Rights provides guidance to grantees in complying with civil rights laws that prohibit discrimination. Please see https://www.hhs.gov/civil-rights/for-providers/index.html.


Grantees and subgrantees are required to take reasonable steps to provide services to persons with limited English proficiency (i.e., individuals who do not speak English as their primary language and who have a limited ability to read, write, speak, or understand English, including deaf and hard of hearing persons). HHS also provides guidance to recipients of federal financial assistance on meeting the legal obligation to take reasonable steps to provide meaningful access to federally assisted programs by persons with limited English proficiency. Please see http://www.hhs.gov/ocr/civilrights/resources/specialtopics/lep/index.html.


As per 45 CFR § 1370.5(d), all FVPSA-funded services must be provided without requiring documentation of immigration status since FVPSA-funded services do not fall within the definition of federal public benefit that would require verification of immigration status. HHS provides guidance regarding access to HHS-funded services for immigrant survivors of domestic violence. Please see www.hhs.gov/ocr/civilrights/resources/specialtopics/origin/domesticviolencefactsheet.html and www.hhs.gov/civilrights/resources/specialtopics/origin/domesticviolencefactsheet.html.


Given the unique needs of victims of trafficking, FVPSA-funded programs are strongly encouraged to safely screen for and identify victims of human trafficking who are also victims or survivors of domestic violence or dating violence and provide services that support their unique needs (45 CFR § 1370.10(d)).


Annual State Domestic Violence Coalition Grantee Meeting


Coalitions are required to attend FVPSA-sponsored conferences or meetings (including peer-to-peer mentoring) as directed by the FVPSA program throughout the grant’s project period. Grantees may send up to two participants for the in-person events, one of whom must be the coalition's Executive Director, or person whose job responsibility is similar to that of an Executive Director. Subsequent correspondence will advise the grantees of the date, time, and location.


Definitions


For the purpose of this FOA, tribes and Tribal Organizations are required to use the following definitions in carrying out FVPSA-funded programs and activities. Definitions include those expanded or clarified through language found in 45 CFR § 1370.2.


Dating Violence: Violence committed by a person who is or has been in a social relationship of a romantic or intimate nature with the victim and where the existence of such a relationship shall be determined based on a consideration of the length of the relationship, the type of relationship, and the frequency of interaction between the persons involved in the relationship. This part of the definition reflects the definition also found in Section 40002(a)(10) of VAWA (as amended), 34 U.S.C. § 12291(a), as required by FVPSA. Dating violence also includes but is not limited to the physical, sexual, psychological, or emotional violence within a dating relationship, including stalking. It can happen in person or electronically, and may involve financial abuse or other forms of manipulation which may occur between a current or former dating partner regardless of actual or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity.


Domestic Violence: Felony or misdemeanor crimes of violence committed by a current or former spouse or intimate partner of the victim, by a person with whom the victim shares a child in common, by a person who is cohabitating with or has cohabitated with the victim as a spouse or intimate partner, by a person similarly situated to a spouse of the victim under the domestic or family violence laws of the jurisdiction receiving grant monies, or by any other person against an adult or youth victim who is protected from that person's acts under the domestic or family violence laws of the jurisdiction. This definition also reflects the statutory definition of ‘‘domestic violence’’ found in Section 40002(a)(8) of VAWA (as amended), 34 U.S.C. § 12291(a). This definition also includes but is not limited to criminal or non-criminal acts constituting intimidation, control, coercion and coercive control, emotional and psychological abuse and behavior, expressive and psychological aggression, financial abuse, harassment, tormenting behavior, disturbing or alarming behavior, and additional acts recognized in other federal, tribal state, and local laws as well as acts in other federal regulatory or sub-regulatory guidance. This definition is not intended to be interpreted more restrictively than FVPSA and VAWA but rather to be inclusive of other, more expansive definitions. The definition applies to individuals and relationships regardless of actual or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity.


Family Violence: Any act or threatened act of violence, including any forceful detention of an individual, that results or threatens to result in physical injury and is committed by a person against another individual, to or with whom such person is related by blood or marriage, or is or was otherwise legally related, or is or was lawfully residing.


In 1984 when FVPSA was first named and authorized, the term “family violence” was commonly used as synonymous with “domestic violence” (violence between intimate partners). However, currently “family violence” is often used more broadly to encompass the diverse forms of violence that occur within families, including child maltreatment, domestic violence and elder abuse. For clarity and in keeping with the historical FVPSA “family violence” interpretation, the term will continue to be used more narrowly and as interchangeable with “domestic violence.”


Indian Tribe: Any Indian Tribe, band, nation, or other organized group or community, including any Alaska Native village or regional or village corporation as defined in or established pursuant to the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (43 U.S.C. § 1601 et seq.), that is recognized as eligible for the special programs and services provided by the United States to Indians because of their status as Indians (25 U.S.C. § 5304).


Intimate Partner Violence: A term used interchangeably with domestic violence or dating violence.


Personally Identifying Information or Personal Information: Any individually identifying information for or about an individual, including information likely to disclose the location of a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, regardless of whether the information is encoded, encrypted, hashed, or otherwise protected, including: a first and last name; a home or other physical address; contact information (including a postal, e-mail or Internet protocol address, or telephone or facsimile number); a social security number, driver’s license number, passport number, or student identification number; and any other information, including date of birth, racial or ethnic background, or religious affiliation that would serve to identify any individual.


Shelter: The provision of temporary refuge in conjunction with supportive services in compliance with applicable state or tribal law or regulations governing the provision, on a regular basis, of shelter, safe homes, meals, and supportive services to victims of family violence, domestic violence, or dating violence, and their dependents. State and tribal law governing the provision of shelter and supportive services on a regular basis is interpreted by ACF to mean, for example, the laws and regulations applicable to zoning, fire safety, and other regular safety, and operational requirements, including state, tribal, or local regulatory standards for certifying domestic violence advocates who work in shelter. This definition also includes emergency shelter and immediate shelter, which may include housing provision, rental subsidies, temporary refuge, or lodging in properties that could be individual units for families and individuals (such as apartments) in multiple locations around a local jurisdiction, tribe/reservation, or state; such properties are not required to be owned, operated, or leased by the program. Temporary refuge includes a residential service, including shelter and off-site services such as hotel or motel vouchers or individual dwellings, which is not transitional or permanent housing, but must also provide comprehensive supportive services. The mere act of making a referral to shelter or housing shall not itself be considered provision of shelter. Should other jurisdictional laws conflict with this definition of temporary refuge, the definition which provides more expansive housing accessibility governs.


State Domestic Violence Coalition means a Statewide, nongovernmental, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization whose membership includes a majority of the primary-purpose domestic violence service providers in the State; whose board membership is representative of these primary-purpose domestic violence service providers and which may include representatives of the communities in which the services are being provided in the State; that has as its purpose to provide education, support, and technical assistance to such service providers to enable the providers to establish and maintain supportive services and to provide shelter to victims of domestic violence and their children; and that serves as an information clearinghouse, primary point of contact, and resource center on domestic violence for the State and supports the development of policies, protocols and procedures to enhance domestic violence intervention and prevention in the State/Territory.


Subaward: An award provided by a pass-through entity to a subrecipient for the subrecipient to carry out part of a federal award received by the pass-through entity. It does not include payments to a contractor or payments to an individual that is a beneficiary of a federal program. A subaward may be provided through any form of legal agreement, including an agreement that the pass-through entity considers a contract (45 CFR § 75.2).


Subgrant: Has the same meaning as subaward.


Supportive services: Services for adult and youth victims of family violence, domestic violence, or dating violence, and their dependents that are designed to meet the needs of such victims and their dependents for short-term, transitional, or long-term safety and recovery. Supportive services include, but are not limited to: direct and/or referral-based advocacy on behalf of victims and their dependents, counseling, case management, employment services, referrals, transportation services, legal advocacy or assistance, child care services, health, behavioral health and preventive health services, culturally and linguistically appropriate services, and other services that assist victims or their dependents in recovering from the effects of the violence. To the extent not already described in this definition, supportive services also include but are not limited to other services identified in FVPSA at 42 U.S.C. § 10408(b)(1)(A)-(H). Supportive services may be directly provided by grantees and/or by providing advocacy or referrals to assist victims in accessing such services.

Tribal Organization: The recognized governing body of any Indian Tribe; any legally established organization of Indians that is controlled, sanctioned, or chartered by such governing body or is democratically elected by the adult members of the Indian community to be served by such organization and that includes the maximum participation of Indians in all phases of its activities; or any tribal nonprofit organization; provided that, in any case where a contract is let or grant made to an organization to perform services benefiting more than one Indian Tribe, the approval of each such Indian Tribe shall be a prerequisite to the letting or making of such contract or grant (25 U.S.C. § 5304).


Tribe: A Reference to Indian Tribe used for brevity.


Underserved populations: Populations who face barriers in accessing and using victim services, and includes populations underserved because of geographic location, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, underserved racial and ethnic populations, and populations underserved because of special needs including language barriers, disabilities, immigration status, and age. Individuals with criminal histories due to victimization and individuals with substance use disorders and mental health issues are also included in this definition. The reference to racial and ethnic populations is primarily directed toward racial and ethnic minority groups (as defined in section 1707(g) of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. § 300(u-6)(g)), which means American Indians (including Alaska Natives, Eskimos, and Aleuts); Asian American; Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders; Blacks and Hispanics. The term “Hispanic” or “Latino” means individuals whose origin is Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American, or any other Spanish speaking country. This underserved populations’ definition also includes other population categories determined by the Secretary or the Secretary’s designee to be underserved.


II. FEDERAL AWARD INFORMATION


Subject to the availability of federal appropriations and as authorized by law, ACF will make available in fiscal years 2018, 2019 and 2020 grants to the designated, statewide, domestic violence coalitions described in this FOA. Of the amount appropriated according to 42 U.S.C. § 10403(a)(1) of the FVPSA and which is not reserved under 42 U.S.C. § 10403(a)(2)(A)(i), 10 percent will be available to fund one coalition in each of the 50 states, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the District of Columbia, and in each of the U.S. Territories (Guam, U.S. Virgin Islands, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and American Samoa).


In separate announcements, ACF allocates 10 percent of the foregoing appropriation to Tribes and Tribal Organizations for the establishment and operation of shelters, safe houses, and the provision of supportive services; and 70 percent of the amount appropriated to state agencies for immediate shelter, supportive services, and prevention activities. In addition, ACF provides funding for multi-year FVPSA discretionary grants to one National Indian Resource Center Addressing Domestic Violence and Safety for Indian Women; one National Domestic Violence Resource Center; four Special Issue Resource Centers; three Culturally Specific Special Issue Resource Centers; one Alaska Native Tribal Resource Center on Domestic Violence; one LGBTQ Institute on Intimate Partner Violence; two Capacity Building Centers; demonstration grants under the Specialized Services for Abused Parents and Their Children program; and the National Domestic Violence Hotline.


Length of Project Periods


The project period for awards made under this announcement is 24 months. Grantees must address their anticipated activities for the 24 month project period.


Expenditure Period


The expenditure period under this announcement is 24 months which coincides with the project period. Although the grantee has 24 months to expend the funds, it is anticipated that a coalition will normally spend its award within a 12 month period, and therefore, the grantee is only required to submit a 12 month budget. FVPSA funds may be used for expenses starting on October 1 of each fiscal year for which they are granted, and will be available for expenses through September 30 of the following fiscal year.

III. ELIGIBILITY INFORMATION


To be eligible for grants under this FOA, an organization must be designated by HHS as a

Statewide, non-governmental, nonprofit 501(c)(3) domestic violence coalition as of the date of this announcement. A list of the designated Coalitions is found in Appendix B.


Designated Coalitions must continue to meet the following criteria:


The membership of the Coalition includes a majority of the primary-purpose domestic violence service providers operating in the state (see I. Funding Opportunity Announcement/Definitions). A Coalition may include member representatives from Indian Tribes and Tribal Organizations. Tribes have special sovereign status and, as such, collaborations with them must include the opportunity for Coalition membership provided they meet general membership eligibility requirements and ensure that there are no impediments to their membership given their special sovereign status.


In addition, the board membership of the Coalition must be representative of such programs, and may include representatives of communities in which the services are being provided in the state (45 CFR § 1370.20(b)(1) and (b)(2)). In order for statewide needs assessments and other organizational and State planning to be fully informed directly by stakeholders from diverse communities, it is expected that the Coalition Board of Directors will reflect the cultural, racial, and ethnic populations that the coalition serves throughout the state;


Financial sustainability of Coalitions, as independent, autonomous non-profit organizations, also must be supported by their membership, including those member representatives on the Coalitions’ Boards of Directors (45 CFR § 1370.20 (b)(3)).


Additional Information on Eligibility


DUNS Number and System for Award Management Eligibility Requirements (SAM.gov)

All applicants must have a Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) Number (http:// fedgov. dnb.com /webform) and an active registration with the System for Award Management (SAM.gov/www.sam.gov).

Obtaining a DUNS Number may take 1 to 2 days.

All applicants are required to maintain an active SAM registration until the application process is complete. If a grant is awarded, registration at SAM.gov must be active throughout the life of the award.

Plan ahead. Allow at least 10 business days after you submit your registration for it to become active in SAM and at least an additional 24 hours before that registration information is available in other government systems, i.e. Grants.gov.

This action should allow you time to resolve any issues that may arise. Failure to comply with these requirements may result in your inability to submit your application through Grants.gov or prevent the award of a grant. Applicants should maintain documentation (with dates) of your efforts to register for, or renew a registration, at SAM. User Guides are available under the “Help” tab at https://www.sam.gov.

HHS requires all entities that plan to apply for, and ultimately receive, federal grant funds from any HHS Agency, or receive subawards directly from recipients of those grant funds to:

  • Be registered in the SAM prior to submitting an application or plan;

  • Maintain an active SAM registration with current information at all times during which it has an active award or an application or plan under consideration by an OPDIV; and

  • Provide its active DUNS number in each application or plan it submits to the OPDIV.

ACF is prohibited from making an award until an applicant has complied with these requirements. At the time an award is ready to be made, if the intended recipient has not complied with these requirements, ACF:

  • May determine that the applicant is not qualified to receive an award; and

  • May use that determination as a basis for making an award to another applicant.

IV. APPLICATION AND SUBMISSION INFORMATION


Application Submission Requirements


Mandatory grant recipients are required to use the Online Data Collection System (OLDC) to submit the Application for Federal Assistance SF-424 Mandatory Form (SF-424M) and upload all required documents. The form is available to applicants and grantees at http://www.grants.gov/web/grants/forms/sf-424-mandatory-family.html. ACF will not accept paper applications, or those submitted via email or facsimile, without a waiver.


Note: It is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure that FVPSA is made aware of any changes to the Authorizing Official and/or contact person that occur at any time during the entire application process. Applicants must ensure that the Authorizing Official has warranted access to OLDC for persons who need to submit the application.


Request an Exemption from Required Electronic Submission


ACF recognizes that some of the recipient community may have limited or no Internet access, and/or limited computer capacity, which may prohibit uploading large files to the Internet through the OLDC system. To accommodate such recipients, ACF is instituting an exemption procedure, on a case-by-case basis, that will allow such recipients to submit hard copy, paper state and tribal plans and reporting forms by the United States Postal Service, hand-delivery, recipient courier, overnight/express mail couriers, or other representatives of the recipient.


Additionally, on a case-by-case basis, we will consider requests to accept hard copy, paper submissions of state and tribal plans and reporting forms when circumstances such as natural disasters occur (floods, hurricanes, etc.); or when there are widespread disruptions of mail service; or in other rare cases that would prevent electronic submission of the documents.

Recipients will be required to submit a written statement to ACF that the recipient qualifies for an exemption under one of these grounds: lack of Internet access; or limited computer capacity that prevents the uploading of large files to the Internet; the occurrence of natural disasters (floods, hurricanes, etc.); or when there are widespread disruptions of mail service; or in other rare cases that would prevent electronic submission of the documents.


Exemption requests will be reviewed and the recipient will be notified of a decision to approve or deny the request. Requests should state if the exemption is for submission of the SF-424M and state and/or tribal plan, Performance Progress Reports (PPR), or Federal Financial Reports (FFR). The written statement must be sent to the Program Office (for SF-424M and state and/or tribal plan, and PPR exemption requests) and/or ACF Grants Management Office (for FFR exemption requests) points of contact shown in Section VI. Agency Contact of this funding opportunity announcement. Requests must be received on or before the due date for applications listed in this funding opportunity announcement. Exemption requests may be submitted by regular mail or by email.

In all cases, the decision to allow an exemption to accept submission of hard copy, paper state plans and reporting forms will rest with the Program Office listed in this announcement and/or ACF’s Office of Grants Management. Exemptions are applicable only to the federal fiscal year in which they are received and approved. If an exemption is necessary for a future federal fiscal year, a request must be submitted during each federal fiscal year for which an exemption is necessary.
