Grant Description: The Training Grants to Stop Abuse and Sexual Assault Against Older Individuals or Individuals with Disabilities Program (Training Grants Program) was created by the Violence Against Women Act of 2000 (VAWA 2000) to provide training to assist law enforcement officers, prosecutors, and relevant officers of Federal, State, tribal, and local courts in recognizing, addressing, investigating, and prosecuting instances of elder abuse, neglect, and exploitation, and violence against individuals with disabilities, including domestic violence and sexual assault, against older or disabled individuals. Projects funded through the Training Grants Program will provide training to law enforcement, prosecutors and the judiciary to create a multidisciplinary approach to addressing elder abuse within the criminal justice system in their communities. In FY 2006, OVW will fund 8 to 10 projects to pilot curricula focusing on elder abuse. OVW will provide intensive and comprehensive technical assistance to successful applicants as part of this initiative. This technical assistance will include a train-the-trainer component to provide multi-disciplinary training teams with the skills necessary to provide training to law enforcement on the local level, workshops for prosecutors and a judicial institute focusing on elder abuse, neglect and exploitation.
