📢Action Alert: Overnight, all available 2025 Notices of Funding Opportunities were removed from the OVW website, and applicants were instructed to stop working on their applications. This could impact critical programs designed to support victims and survivors of violence. While it is unclear whether these grants will be temporarily or permanently unavailable, any delay in funding will harm survivors who rely on these vital resources and put their safety at risk.

The Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) at the U.S. Department of Justice plays a crucial role in reducing violence against women and ensuring life-saving support is available. OVW provides funding and technical assistance to domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking programs across the U.S.

Contact your members of Congress and ask them to call on OVW to restore these funding opportunities immediately. These funds are essential to supporting law enforcement, courts, and programs across the country that help victims and survivors on their journey to safety and healing.

Globally, 1 in every 5 girls is formally married or in an informal union before reaching 18 years of age. Child marriage is a form of gender-based violence and a human rights violation. In addition to physical and emotional abuse, it puts minors at higher risk for poverty and exploitation and denies them educational and economic opportunities. It is the leading cause of adolescent girls dropping out of school worldwide. Health crises, conflicts and climate change are increasing the risks of child marriage for millions of girls worldwide:

A tenfold increase in conflict-related deaths correlates with a 7% increase in child marriage.
A 10% change in rainfall due to climate change is associated with a 1% increase in child marriage.

Day 9 of the : Cultural Awareness

Culture and religion are often used as excuses or believed to be a justification for gender-based violence/abuse and harmful cultural practices such as ‘honour’-based abuse, female ge***al mutilation, forced/child marriage and other harmful practices.

Violence against women and girls can also originate online.

We must stop these attacks to support women and girls to reach their full potential.
