The Legal Assistance for Victims Grant Program (LAV) is intended to increase the availability of legal assistance to victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking by funding comprehensive legal services projects. The legal services projects should include organizations that have a mission and history of providing direct services to victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Eligible applicants include nonprofit organizations; publicly funded entities acting in a nongovernmental capacity, such as law schools; Indian Tribal governments; Indian Tribal organizations; and territorial organizations.
OVW will consider only one application for this program per organization for the same service area (i.e., the geographic area to be served). Interested applicants from within Duke should contact fundopps@duke.edu as early as possible.
Deadline: Jan. 28, 2025
