Grant Description: The Rural Domestic Violence and Child Victimization Enforcement Grant Program (Rural Program) recognizes that victims of domestic violence, dating violence and child victimization living in rural jurisdictions face unique barriers to receiving assistance and additional challenges rarely encountered in urban areas. The geographic isolation, economic structure, particularly strong social and cultural pressures, and lack of available services in rural jurisdictions significantly compound the problems confronted by those seeking support and services to end the violence in their lives and complicate the ability of the criminal justice system to investigate and prosecute domestic violence, dating violence, and child victimization cases. In addition, sociocultural, economic, and geographic barriers create difficulties for victim service providers and other social services professionals to identify and assist victims of domestic violence, dating violence, and child victimization. The primary purpose of the Rural Program is to enhance the safety of victims of domestic violence, dating violence, and child victimization by supporting projects uniquely designed to address and prevent these crimes in rural jurisdictions. OVW welcomes applications that propose innovative solutions for achieving this goal. The Rural Program challenges victim advocates, law enforcement officers, pre-trial service personnel, prosecutors, judges and other court personnel, probation and parole officers, and faith- and/or community-based leaders to collaborate to overcome the problem of domestic violence, dating violence and child victimization and to ensure that victim safety is paramount in providing services to victims and their children.
