NATIONAL CHILDREN'S ALLIANCE

Awards for the Establishment, Improvement, and Expansion of Children's Advocacy Centers

NCA, under a cooperative agreement with the United States Department of Justice Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), will administer over 15 million in federal funds for the establishment, improvement, and expansion of Children’s Advocacy Centers (CACs) through this request for proposals (RFP). Please note that specific award amounts may change. All awards are contingent upon the release of funding from OJJDP.

This large grant category includes mostly funding for expanding services in developing CACs, maintaining the provision of core services at CACs that experienced financial setbacks, supporting CACs at meeting the new accreditation standards, expanding reach and developing teleservices and providing medical/forensic interviewing equipment and operational technology.
