Purpose
The Office of Justice Programs (OJP) is committed to advancing work that furthers the U.S. Department of Justice’s (DOJ) mission to keep our country safe and secure and uphold the rule of law and protect the rights of American citizens. OJP provides federal leadership, funding, and other critical resources to directly support law enforcement, combat violent crime, protect American children, provide services to American crime victims, and address public safety challenges, including human trafficking and the opioid crisis.
This is a notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) for the OVC FY 2026 Preventing Trafficking of Girls. This opportunity will support prevention and early intervention services for girls who are at risk of, or are victims of, human trafficking as defined by 22 U.S.C. § 7102(11) by funding programs to:
- Replicate and scale up prevention and early intervention programs for girls and young women who are at risk of, or are victims of, sex and/or labor trafficking.
- Implement or enhance efforts to identify and provide comprehensive and developmentally appropriate services to girls and young women who are at risk of, or are victims of, sex and/or labor trafficking. This may include street outreach efforts, partnerships with organizations that serve youth, partnerships with juvenile justice and child welfare systems, and/or collaboration with key community stakeholders.
- Participate in peer-to-peer learning opportunities.
Services may be provided to girls and young women up to and including age 25. Applicants should address how they will be prepared to serve survivors of all types of human trafficking, including both sex trafficking and labor trafficking. See Appendix A for types of services that OVC funds.
