What it funds
This is a notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) for the OJJDP FY 2026 Strategies to Support Children Exposed to Violence. This opportunity will support the implementation of violent crime reduction strategies focused on violent juvenile offenders and improving communities' ability to help children exposed to violence in their homes, schools, and communities. Through this program the incidence and impact of violence will be reduced by strengthening local efforts to address victimization of children exposed to violence and mitigate the risk of adverse long-term effects and negative outcomes associated with children's exposure to violence.
