Additional information on eligibility (from the notice)
For both Purpose Area 1 and Purpose Area 2: Applications in either purpose area that involve two or more entities are welcome; however, one eligible entity must be the lead applicant and the others proposed as subrecipients (subgrantees). The lead applicant must be the entity with the primary responsibility for administering the funding and managing the project, including subrecipient monitoring. Under this solicitation, only one application by any particular entity will be considered. An entity may, however, be proposed as a subrecipient (subgrantee) in more than one application. All recipients and subrecipients, of both purpose areas (including any for-profit organization), must forgo any profit or management fee. OVC may elect to fund applications submitted under this FY 2018 solicitation in future fiscal years, dependent on, among other considerations, the merit of the applications and on the availability of appropriations.
