Opportunity Information: Apply for O OVC 2022 171338

The OVC FY 2022 Measuring the Impact of Victim Services opportunity is a Department of Justice, Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) discretionary funding solicitation designed to strengthen how victim service providers measure the results of their work. It sits within the broader Office of Justice Programs (OJP) priorities of advancing civil rights and racial equity, expanding access to justice, supporting victims and others impacted by the justice system, improving community safety, and building trust between law enforcement and the communities they serve. Within that context, OVC is emphasizing a shift in the victim services field away from simply counting activities or outputs (such as number of clients served) and toward consistently measuring outcomes, service quality, and overall effectiveness.

At the center of the solicitation is the iMPRoVE project, which stands for Measures for Providers Responding to Victimization Experiences. iMPRoVE is essentially a standardized assessment and survey tool that victim service providers can use to capture client outcomes and evaluate the quality and impact of services delivered. The goal is to make outcome measurement more consistent across the field so providers, funders, and stakeholders can better understand what works, for whom, and under what circumstances. By supporting a common measurement approach, OVC is trying to help programs demonstrate results in a credible, comparable way, while also encouraging continuous improvement in service delivery.

This award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to be more actively involved than with a standard grant, often through collaboration, guidance, and shared responsibilities during implementation. The solicitation seeks to fund an entity to implement, manage, and sustain iMPRoVE for victim service providers, with an emphasis not only on launching and operating the tool, but also on ensuring it remains usable and supported over time. In practical terms, that implies responsibilities such as administering the tool, maintaining the underlying system or platform, providing training and technical assistance to providers, supporting consistent and ethical data collection, and helping the field interpret and apply results to improve services.

Eligibility is broad and includes state, county, and local governments; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; public and private institutions of higher education; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status; public housing authorities; for-profit organizations (including small businesses); and even individuals, with the note that eligibility is generally unrestricted across these entity types subject to any additional clarification in the full solicitation. The assistance listing is associated with CFDA (now Assistance Listing) 16.582, which is tied to crime victim assistance-related programming.

Key administrative details from the posted opportunity include a creation date of May 12, 2022, and an original closing date of July 5, 2022. The award ceiling is listed as $1,500,000. The source data also notes “ExpectedAwards: 5,” even though the narrative description says the solicitation seeks to fund one entity, which can be a sign that either the broader program anticipated multiple related awards or that the listing field does not perfectly match the narrative summary. The main takeaway remains that the solicitation is focused on building and sustaining national capacity for outcome measurement in victim services through the iMPRoVE tool, aligning measurement practices across providers so the field can better document impact, improve quality, and support justice and healing for all victims of crime.
