Abstract: The Grants for Training and Services to End Violence
Against Individuals with Disabilities and Deaf People Program
(Disability Grant Program) seeks to create sustainable change within
and between organizations that improves the response to individuals
with disabilities and Deaf individuals who are victims of sexual
assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking and to hold
perpetrators of such crimes accountable. The program was created by
Congress to address the pressing need to focus on sexual assault,
domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking against individuals
with disabilities and Deaf individuals due to the proliferation of such
crimes.
Disability Grant Program funds are used to establish and strengthen
multidisciplinary collaborative relationships; increase organizational
capacity to provide accessible, safe, and effective services to
individuals with disabilities and Deaf individuals who are victims of
violence and abuse; identify needs within the grantee's organization
and/or service area; and develop a plan to address those identified
needs that builds a strong foundation for future work.
Eligible applicants are limited to: States; units of local
government; Indian Tribal governments or Tribal organizations; and
victim service providers, such as State or Tribal domestic violence or
sexual assault coalitions or nonprofit,

nongovernmental organizations serving individuals with disabilities.
