Summary
The purpose of this NOFO is to support community coalitions that work to
prevent and reduce substance use among youth. This NOFO aligns with the
Drug-Free Communities (DFC)’s Support Program’s two goals:
• Establish and strengthen collaboration among community stakeholders
and organizations to address youth substance use.
• Reduce substance use among youth and, over time, reduce substance
use among adults by:
◦ Addressing the factors in a community that increase the risk of
substance use.
◦ Promoting the factors that minimize the risk of substance use.

The DFC program will fund coalitions that haven’t received DFC funding.

Please note: The DFC Program is funded and administered by the White
House Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). CDC manages the DFC
Program on behalf of ONDCP.

Purpose of Funding
This NOFO will support sites that are implementing OVC-funded anti-human trafficking programs to design and implement ongoing engagement with survivors of human trafficking, as defined by 22 U.S.C. § 7102(11), to improve outcomes for human trafficking victims.  

To inform and improve anti-trafficking programming, applicants should propose approaches that help build OVC anti-trafficking grantees’ capacity to identify and partner with survivors in their local community, state, or region. The awardee will deliver training and technical assistance on effective victim service programming for trafficking survivors. This includes intensive support to recipients of each fiscal year’s new human trafficking victim service awards during their first year of implementation, as well as ongoing support for entities implementing existing awards.  

OVC expects the successful applicant to propose innovative strategies for OVC anti-trafficking grantees to develop these partnerships and offer organizational peer support on survivor engagement approaches. OVC is interested in proposals that maximize the number of grantees supported through this effort.  

The University of Arizona is ineligible for this cycle due to updated limiting language: "The Foundation will consider only one proposal from an organization in any calendar year".

Executive Summary
Priority Region: Jordan

This project leverages American excellence in water conservation projects. It shares U.S. know how with Jordanian audiences in a manner that serves Jordanian needs for creative strategies in changing behavior around water use. At the same time, it amplifies the way in which American campaigns have successfully changed consumer behavior to reach positive ends. A more knowledgeable and water-conscientious population may open the door for American businesses with water infrastructure and hydro-engineering expertise to enter the Jordan market with solution-oriented products. Jordan is the second-most water scarce county in the world. To keep taps flowing, Amman and other urban communities rely on both legacy and new water infrastructure. Even with successful and timely completion of new water projects, including the National Conveyance Project that the United States is supporting through foreign assistance, Jordan estimates it will again face a water deficit by 2035. This, coupled with Jordan’s arid landscape and increased water demands due to population growth, demands a significant need for consumer conservation, as well as a broader understanding among the younger generation about water scarcity issues in Jordan. If young Jordanians have increased awareness of and implement effective water-saving practices, they can become valuable advocates for water efficiency and conservation among their peers, within their families, and throughout Jordanian communities.

The embassy’s Public Diplomacy Section announces a funding opportunity for the “Make Every Drop count: A Youth Water Conservation Project” project and invites proposals for social media campaigns geared toward Jordanian youth (generation Z) that focus on the need for and implementation of water conservation efforts. The eventual title of the project is part of the proposal, and should be Jordan specific, relevant to youth, and use youth vernacular.

The “Make Every Drop Count” project will target 16 – 25-year-old youth in Jordan and showcase expertise from the United States in youth community engagement programs, resource management, media analysis, and social media strategy. Successful proposals will highlight a proven track record in launching successful direct-action campaigns led by and for youth, strong and established connections with experts in the United States and Jordan, knowledge of and willingness to work with existing water conservation efforts in Jordan, previous experience in youth engagement, and ties to youth education institutions or centers.

This initiative aligns with the embassy’s broader efforts to enhance Jordan’s water security, foster local water stewardship, and ensure sustainable access to water for Jordanians, while highlighting U.S. expertise in this area.
