Re: Important Update Regarding Our OVW Grants April 14, 2025 Dear Registrant, We are writing to inform you that, effective immediately, all of our grants with the Office on Violence Against Women have been terminated. The Department of Justice has concluded that these grants "no longer effectuate the agency priorities." As we consider our next steps, we must pause all work related to these grants.

We are incredibly grateful for your commitment to advancing safety, justice, and dignity for survivors and interest in further developing your skills in this field. With deep appreciation and continued solidarity,
