The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is seeking applications for funding under its Fiscal Year (FY) 2010 Attorney General’s Children Exposed to Violence Demonstration Program: Phase I. This program is jointly funded by the Office of Justice Programs’ (OJP) Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) and the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) and the Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) and supportively managed by a Department-wide committee of bureaus and offices, including OJJDP, OVC, OVW, the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS), Executive Office of United States Attorneys (EOUSA), and other OJP offices. This demonstration program furthers DOJ’s mission by combating violence through a comprehensive approach to prevention, intervention, treatment, and response for children and their families exposed to violence in the home, school, and community. This program will help communities strategically plan this comprehensive approach to both prevent and reduce the negative impacts of violence.
