Technical Assistance Program

Program Overview

TA

Technical Assistance Program

The Technical Assistance Program (TA Program) provides VAWA grantees with training, expertise, and problem-solving strategies to address the diverse needs of victims of domestic/sexual violence. Technical assistance (TA) providers typically are national, tribal, statewide, or other nonprofit organizations or institutions of higher education with the capacity to provide training and technical assistance on a national level. This may include:

  • Educational opportunities;
  • Conferences, seminars, and roundtables;
  • Peer-to-peer, individualized consultations;
  • Policy development; and
  • Site visits.

The primary purpose of the TA Program is to provide a wide range of direct technical assistance to VAWA grantees and subgrantees, so that they can successfully implement grant-funded projects. In addition,
the TA Program focuses on building the capacity of criminal justice and victim services organizations to respond effectively to domestic/sexual violence. Providers seek to support grantees in fostering partnerships among organizations that have not traditionally worked together to address these forms of violence, such as faith- and community-based organizations.
