??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.

Check out some of FVLC's latest work...
We’re excited to be featured in the latest edition of East Bay Magazine. In the article, our co-founder and Director of Learning, Josie Ramos, emphasizes that many of the issues affecting women globally are often similar to the challenges women face here in the U.S. and, specifically, in California where our organization is based. Learn more about Rise Up’s impactful work in California (including our partnership with Sadia Khan and the Family Violence Law Center) and around the world. https://lnkd.in/gxmn9KAt
