Family Violence Prevention and Services Culturally Specific Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Discretionary Grants: This new funding opportunity will award thirty cooperative agreements to implement culturally relevant sexual assault and domestic violence services for individuals and families impacted by domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence and family violence. The intent of the FVPSA Culturally Specific Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault discretionary grant program is to build and sustain organizational capacity in delivering trauma-informed, developmentally sensitive, culturally relevant services for children, individuals, and families affected by sexual assault, domestic violence and other traumas. This discretionary grant program will build upon the progress of culturally specific and community-based sexual assault and domestic violence programs in reducing the pervasive and harmful impact of violence and trauma by implementing culturally relevant, trauma-informed, and evidence-informed interventions for individuals and families who are from diverse, underserved, and historically marginalized communities.For the purposes of this program instruction, “underserved population,” “underserved communities,” or “people who have been historically underserved” should be read to be consistent with FVPSA statutory and regulatory definitions (at 42 U.S. Code § 10402 (14) and 45 CFR part 1370.2).
