Partnering law enforcement and victim services applicants are expected to submit identical proposal narratives and separate and distinct budgets. Applicants that do not apply with an eligible partner will not be considered for funding.

About this opportunity

This is a notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) for the OVC FY 2026 Enhanced Collaborative Model (ECM) Task Force to Combat Human Trafficking. This opportunity supports jurisdictions in developing and expanding a multidisciplinary, collaborative task force approach to better respond to human trafficking through increased victim identification, service provision, and case investigations.

Portfolio context — this listing covers more than this opportunity

This opportunity is funded under Assistance Listing 16.320 (“Services for Trafficking Victims”), a broad federal program that made about 84 new awards per year over the last five fiscal years (median award $750k). Those figures describe that whole portfolio — not this specific solicitation, so we don't show them as if they were this opportunity's track record.

Applicant counts per solicitation are not published by any federal agency — no one can honestly sell you that number.
