AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: Eligible applicants are nonprofit organizations, including tribal nonprofit organizations, faith and community-based organizations, and public agencies.  All recipients and subrecipients (including any for-profit organization) must forgo any profit or management fee.  OVC may elect to fund applications submitted under this FY 2018 solicitation in future fiscal years, dependent on, among other considerations, the merit of the applications and on the availability of appropriations.
Description: OVC will award one cooperative agreement to conceptualize, develop, and produce a comprehensive kit in English and Spanish that will serve as a resource for the victim services field to support efforts to heighten public awareness of crime victim issues nationwide during National Crime Victims&apos; Rights Week in April 2019, and throughout the year. This year, the development of the NCVRW Theme Video will be included in the solicitation. The recipient will collaborate with OVC to develop a creative plan, identify key people and events to interview and videotape, explore additional resources for images and sound (such as news footage, radio reports, still photographs, victim impact statements, etc.) and produce a compelling NCVRW Theme video that succinctly captures the importance of victims&apos; rights and services. Additionally, based on usage and download trends since 2012, the grantee will make a recommendation for translating components of the Resource Guide into Spanish. This award amount recommended in this program plan assumes the entire Resource Guide and Theme Video subtitles will be translated. Funding will also include the creation of the 2020 theme narrative.
