Part of the Fact Sheet follows:

The FY 2016 CVE Grant Program organizes eligible activities into five focus areas that current research has shown are likely to be most effective in countering violent extremism:

  • Developing resilience
  • Training and engaging with community members
  • Managing intervention activities
  • Challenging the narrative
  • Building capacity of community-level non-profit organizations active in CVE

Eligibility

States, local governments, tribal governments, non-profit institutions, and institutes of higher education in all 56 states and territories are eligible to apply for FY 2016 funds in specific CVE focus areas. Applicants representing state government agencies, local government agencies, tribal government agencies, and non-profit organizations are invited to apply for funding to implement the following program priorities:

  • Developing resilience
  • Training and engaging with community members
  • Managing intervention activities

Applicants representing non-profit organizations and institutions of higher education are invited to apply for funding to implement the following program priorities:

  • Challenging the narrative
  • Building capacity of community-level non-profit organizations active in CVE

Proposed programs, projects or activities shall not infringe on individual privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties. Applications shall describe any potential impacts to privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties and ways in which applicants will protect against or mitigate those impacts and administer their program(s) in a nondiscriminatory manner.

Applicants must have either an existing CVE program or demonstrable expertise to create and administer a program, project or activity which falls within one of the five identified focus areas. Applications which do not describe an organization with appropriate expertise will be deemed ineligible for funding. Guidance regarding eligibility can be found in the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) at Grants.gov.

Funding

A total of $10,000,000 will be awarded to a projected 60 grantees through a competitive, panel-reviewed application process. Grants will range in size from $20,000 to $1,500,000, and will be distributed across the focus areas:
