Eligibility Criteria
For a proposal to be considered it must receive a minimum score of 50% of available points on the Rating Sheet. Only one proposal per Applicant will be eligible to receive funding. If an Applicant submits more than one proposal, only the highest scoring proposal, meeting the criteria above, will be considered for funding.
For a proposal to be eligible to compete for funding (i.e., read and rated) all the following conditions must be met:
- Applicants may either be a governmental or non-governmental entity with the primary purpose of providing services specifically designed to meet the needs of one or two marginalized victims/survivors of crime group(s). If the marginalized victim/survivor of crime services are one effort within a larger organization with other focuses (for example, a domestic violence organization with a division that focuses on Hispanic domestic violence victims), the organization is not eligible because providing specific services to the marginalized victim/survivor of crime group is not the primary purpose of the organization as a whole.
- Proposals must include a letter, on agency letterhead, (1) certifying the Applicant has the primary purpose of providing services specifically designed to meet the needs of one or two marginalized victim/survivor of crime groups and (2) identifying the one or two groups.
