OVC FY 2026 Services for Victims of Crime

The Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) is seeking proposals for the OVC FY 2026 Services for Victims of Crime funding opportunity. This program aims to support the development, expansion, and strengthening of victim service programs for all victims of crime throughout the United States and its territories. The proposed projects should provide direct services to victims of crime, including child and youth victims, victims of elder abuse, fraud, and exploitation, and other types of crime victims. The services may include emergency assistance, case management, shelter and housing, medical and dental care, victim advocacy, transportation, childcare, legal services, and employment assistance. • The funding opportunity is open to various types of organizations, including private institutions of higher education, Native American tribal governments, county governments, and non-profits. • The award ceiling for this funding opportunity is $500,000. • The application deadline is June 23, 2026. • The OVC has dedicated funding streams and grant opportunities for services for victims of human trafficking, and therefore, human trafficking projects are not eligible for this funding opportunity.
