Family Violence Prevention and Services Act
Grant Status = Closed
The purpose of FVPSA is to prevent incidents of domestic and dating violence; and to provide immediate shelter, support services and access to community programs for victims and their dependents. This may include paying for the operating and administrative expenses of the facilities, or providing counseling, advocacy, and self-help services to victims and their dependents, to name a few. Eligible entities include local public agencies or nonprofit private organizations that assist victims of domestic or dating violence, and their dependents, and have a documented history of working effectively in this area.
In order to participate in the program, a non-federal match is required (either directly or through public or private donations) that is no less than 20% of the project cost. The non-federal contributions may be in cash or in kind. Additionally, FVPSA grantees must protect the privacy and confidentiality of those being provided services.
