| NOW OPEN: OVW's FY 2023 Research and Evaluation Initiative Solicitation The purpose of the Research and Evaluation (R&E) Initiative is to research and evaluate approaches to combatting domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking (hereafter referred to as "VAWA crimes"). By generating more knowledge about strategies for serving victims and holding offenders accountable, communities that benefit from VAWA funding will be better equipped to align their work with practices that are known to be effective, and they will be more capable of generating empirical knowledge on the efficacy of new and promising ways of doing things. The initiative is designed to support researcher-practitioner partnerships and a broad range of research and evaluation methods, including qualitative, mixed-method, quasi-experimental, and experimental designs. Because OVW has very limited funds to support research and evaluation, this initiative prioritizes topics for which a stronger evidence base would help OVW grantees use federal funds most effectively. OVW invites applications for the following topics: - Evaluations of VAWA-funded interventions.
- Evaluations of interventions related to new OVW grant programs.
- Research and evaluation on ways of ensuring language access in responses to VAWA crimes.
- Evaluation of training cirricula, tools, and other technical assistance (TA) resources developed and implemented with OVW grant funds.
- Evaluations of emerging innovations for serving victims of VAWA crimes and holding offenders accountable.
- Secondary data analyses related to domestic/dating violence, sexual assault, and/or stalking.
- Research, evaluation, and data analysis related to domestic violence homicide prevention.
