Opportunity Information: Apply for OVC 2018 14133
The OVC FY 2018 Enhanced Collaborative Model Task Force to Combat Human Trafficking grant opportunity is a U.S. Department of Justice initiative, led by the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) in partnership with the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), designed to strengthen local and regional human trafficking task forces by supporting both law enforcement and victim service providers working together. The program is structured to help communities build, maintain, and expand multidisciplinary responses to human trafficking, with an emphasis on coordinated investigations, victim identification, service delivery, and long-term task force sustainability. Awards are made as cooperative agreements, meaning recipients should expect an active federal partnership and ongoing coordination with OVC/BJA as part of the work.
Funding is organized into three purpose areas that reflect where a task force is in its development. Purpose Area 1 is aimed at task forces that are essentially in the startup phase and need support for the critical first steps of launching or formalizing a multidisciplinary task force. This includes establishing the core partnership between investigators and victim service organizations and putting foundational structures in place, such as protocols for referrals, information-sharing practices that protect victims, coordinated case planning, and basic operational procedures that allow the task force to function consistently.
Purpose Area 2 is intended for task forces that previously received funding in FY 2015 under Purpose Area 1 of the same Enhanced Collaborative Model Task Force Program. In FY 2018, Purpose Area 2 funds continued task force activities while placing a clear focus on planning for sustainability, so that the work can continue beyond the federal award period. In practice, this is about moving from initial setup into stable operations, strengthening partnerships, institutionalizing procedures, and building the practical supports needed for continuity, such as diversified funding strategies, long-term governance structures, and durable cross-agency commitments.
Purpose Area 3 is reserved for more advanced task forces that were funded in FY 2015 under Purpose Area 2. FY 2018 Purpose Area 3 supports expansion of task force efforts and implementation of sustainability plans, not just developing them. It also includes an outward-facing capacity-building component, where funded task forces assist OVC/BJA in strengthening the broader field by helping other task forces build capacity. This reflects an expectation that mature task forces can serve as models, share lessons learned, and help elevate practices beyond their own jurisdictions.
Administratively, the opportunity is a discretionary funding program (CFDA 16.320) under the Department of Justice, Office for Victims of Crime. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, the opportunity number is OVC 2018 14133, and it was posted June 5, 2018 with an original closing date of July 5, 2018. The maximum award amount listed is $900,000, and the program anticipated making about 30 awards. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with the expectation that applicants consult the solicitation’s additional eligibility guidance, which typically clarifies the types of entities and partnership structures allowed to apply.
Overall, the grant is meant to move human trafficking task forces along a clear progression: launching a coordinated multidisciplinary response (PA1), maintaining operations while planning for long-term survival (PA2), and expanding impact while implementing sustainability strategies and helping strengthen other task forces (PA3).Apply for OVC 2018 14133
