Project Description Section
Activities
Describe the project, staff and services you plan to provide with these grant funds.
The Victim Assistance Unit provides services to all victims and witnesses involved in the prosecution of criminal
cases which have occurred in Weld County, Colorado. We serve individuals of all races and ethnicities. languages
and cultures, those who identify as deaf, LGBTOI, disabled (physical, intellectual, developmental disabilities), as
well as those who live in varying geographic locations.
The diversity of Weld County continues to grow along with the population. Weld County had a population increase
of 2.6%.Weld County has a varied population of refugee and immigrant non-English speakers 19.3% whose
primary language is not English. Weld's population is 63.2% White; 31% Hispanic or Latino; 1.4% Black or African
American; .5% American Indian; 1.9% Asian; and 1.8% Two or More Races. An area of emphasis for the Victim
Assistance Unit has been serving those victims with language barriers with their VRA rights and how to participate
in the criminal justice process to the fullest. We have ten Spanish bi-lingual Victim Assistance Staff, access to a
language line service. knowledge of local translators for language and ASL, contact letters in primary East African
languages to reach a greater number of our refugee population. and VRA letters in English and Spanish. We serve
victims speaking fourteen different languages: Karen, Burmese, Chuukese, Malay, Mandarin, Somali
Kinyarwanda, Swahili, French, Napoli, Tigrinya Rohingya. Farsi and Spanish.
The Victim Assistance Unit Staff work with all victims of crime. The requested VOCA project focuses on continued
funding of Victim Assistance Unit Staff to support the unique needs of victims of juvenile offenders, domestic
violence victims, victim families whose loved ones have been killed or seriously injured in Careless Driving
Resulting in Death or Injury.
Victims of Juvenile Offenders
Victims of juvenile offenders are navigating a system which operates differently than a traditional adult criminal
justice process as juvenile offenders have support of an attorney, GAL, Department of Human Services casework
and their parents. These cases drag on through the Juvenile Criminal Justice System as the court gives offenders
many opportunities to comply with court orders. Insignificant penalties for juveniles and now efforts at the
Colorado Legislature to re-classify a person as a juvenile in the criminal justice system adds extreme frustration
and anger by victims and their families. The Juvenile Victim Assistant not only has specialized knowledge of the
juvenile justice system but extreme patience.
Victims of Domestic Violence
Because victims of domestic violence often recant, Victim Assistants make immediate victim contact which is
essential to establishing safety, referrals, and rapport. Domestic violence victims need comprehensive wrap
around services due to the complex nature of the crime. The Victim Assistance Unit recognizes the need to
provide immediate intervention in these complex and dangerous cases. Making immediate contact with victims,
connecting them with services, offering nonjudgmental support, and explaining next steps in the court process are
crucial in assuring the safety of victims who may already be recanting the events of the incident.
Victims of felony domestic violence are subject to being involved in a lengthy criminal justice system as
their perpetrator's case is set over again and again before a plea negotiation is entered into or the case goes to

trial Prior to 2008, there was no process in place to know if a new felony domestic violence case was scheduled
for the initial court hearing Since 2008, due to VOCA funding, a system has been implemented by the VW
Assistants identify a victim's attendance at court and provide support when the victim becomes involved in an
overwhelming and busy courtroom scene
Victims of misdemeanor domestic violence
Our Office's Domestic Violence Fast Track Program began in 2005 enabling us to resolve misdemeanor cases at
the first court hearing because of our immediate contact with the victim The result of resolving cases quickly
through a DV Fast Track meant the defendant started domestic violence treatment sooner, the victim was
provided resolution quickly and the anticipation was that additional violent acts were curtailed This changed in
2014, when Colorado HB-1210 went into effect giving all defendants in custody the right to legal counsel in plea
negotiations The resulting impact meant the District Attorney's Office could no longer resolve misdemeanor
domestic violence cases at the first hearing (no more DV Fast Track Program) resulting in the cases being reset
sometimes up to five times before reaching a plea negotiation or going to trial Having the case in the court system
longer impacts victims who needed continual assistance from a Victim Assistant as the case was reset over and
over
In 2015, the Chief Judge reversed the decision to have one dedicated misdemeanor domestic violence courtroom
and reassigned domestic violence cases to all four County Court Divisions This decision coupled with the change
in law in 2014, we were no longer able to provide adequate assistance to domestic violence victims We were to
obtain grant funding to reclassify the part time VW Intern position a second full time County Victim Assistant to
provide acceptable assistance to victims in all four courtrooms Presently the three County Victim Assistants are
handling misdemeanor domestic violence crimes in a high -volume setting, with multiple cases every day coming
on for first appearance bond hearings The addition of the third County Victim Assistant has enabled us to make
quicker contact with victims whose perpetrators were arrested and saw a judge during weekend bond hearings as
well as responding to the multitude of calls from victims as their perpetrator's case is continued for future court
hearings
Victims of Careless Driving Resulting in Death and Careless Driving Resulting in Injury
These cases are filed in County Court as traffic and are the most intense cases County Victim Assistants handle
Victim families who's loved one has been killed or hurt seriously due to a defendant's careless driving can
experience the same emotions as families who's loved one has been murdered or of become a victim of vehicular
assault
In Careless Driving Resulting in Death cases, the greatest difficulty victim's families are faced with is the
defendant's potential punishment of only being jail and/or Probation compared to a defendant who is convicted of
murder faces prison time County Victim Assistants must support families who are absolutely devastated and
inconsolable in feeling their loved one's death does not matter in the criminal justice system
Similarly, County Victim Assistants provide services to victims and their families who been seriously hurt in traffic
crashes Although Careless Driving Resulting in Injury cases are not VRA crimes, our office tries to identify victims
who have been seriously injured with a permanent physical or mental loss as the police reports may not
adequately portray the seriousness of a person's injuries

The Victim Assistance Unit provides assistance to victims by providing VRA information and education, Crime
Victim Compensation information and application assistance, referral to community services, updates on the
status of the case and support throughout the court process. We evaluate this assistance by recording and
tracking statistics according to grant specific goals and objectives outlined in this application. The clerical Victim
Assistance staff person utilizes the DA ACTION Stat Report to pull quarterly reports to capture VOCA required
statistics The Project Director compiles statistics quarterly and reports to the Victim Assistance Staff on the
progress of the intended outcomes/impact of the data collection. This discussion provides insight into any
unintended changes or outcomes and identifies for Victim Assistance Staff the status of the projected time frame
g

Client surveys are provided to victims at the conclusion of the court process, asking them to rate services from
"Very Satisfied" to "Very Unsatisfied, overall experience from "Very Good" to "Very Poor". and include any
additional comments in the "Additional Comments and\or Contact the Director of Victim Services" section.

Indirect costs are costs of an organization that are not readily assignable to a particular project, but are necessary
to the operation of the organization and the performance of the project. Agencies that have an approved Federal
Indirect Cost Rate can use their rate; agencies that have never had a federally approved indirect cost rate, may
request up to the De Minimis Rate (15% of the Modified Total Direct Cost). If you do not have a federally
negotiated indirect rate, OVP has developed an Indirect Cost Calculator Toot (Excel) to assist you with calculating
your 15% de minimis rate.

4. GENERAL CONDITIONS
A. Requirements of the award; remedies for non-compliance or for materially false
statements
The conditions of this award are material requirements of the award. Compliance with any
certifications or assurances submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct
during the period of performance also is a material requirement of this award.
OJP Awards Only: Limited Exceptions. In certain special circumstances, the
U.S. Department of Justice ("DOJ") may determine that it will not enforce, or
enforce only in part, one or more requirements otherwise applicable to the award.
Any such exceptions regarding enforcement, including any such exceptions made
during the period of performance, are (or will be during the period of
performance) set out through the Office of Justice Programs ("OJP") webpage
entitled "Legal Notices: Special circumstances as to particular award conditions"
(ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegalNotices-AwardReqts.htm), and incorporated by
reference into the award.
By signing and accepting this award on behalf of the recipient, the authorized recipient
official accepts all material requirements of the award, and specifically adopts, as if
personally executed by the authorized recipient official, all assurances or certifications

Federal Awards issued from 2022 Federal Grant Funds
Failure to comply with any one or more of these award requirements -- whether a condition
set out in full below, a condition incorporated by reference below, or a certification or
assurance related to conduct during the award period -- may result in the Division of
Criminal Justice (DCJ), Office of Justice Programs ("OJP") or Office on Violence Against
Women ("OVW") taking appropriate action with respect to the recipient and the award.
Among other things, the Department of Justice "DOJ" may withhold award funds, disallow
costs, or suspend or terminate the award. DOJ, including OJP, and DCJ also may take
other legal action as appropriate.
Any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement to the federal government related to
this award (or concealment or omission of a material fact) may be the subject of criminal
prosecution (including under 18 U.S.C. 1001 and/or 1621, and/or 34 U.S.C. 10271-10273),
and also may lead to imposition of civil penalties and administrative remedies for false
claims or otherwise (including under 31 U.S.C. 3729-3730 and 3801-3812).
Should any provision of a requirement of this award be held to be invalid or unenforceable
by its terms, that provision shall first be applied with a limited construction so as to give it
the maximum effect permitted by law. Should it be held, instead, that the provision is
utterly invalid or -unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed severable from this
award.
B. Applicability of Part 200 Uniform Requirements
The Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements in 2
C.F.R. Part 200, as adopted and supplemented by DOJ in 2 C.F.R. Part 2800 (together, the
"Part 200 Uniform Requirements") apply to this FY 2022 award from OJP.
The Part 200 Uniform Requirements were first adopted by DOJ on December 26, 2014. If
this FY 2022 award supplements funds previously awarded by OJP under the same award
number (e.g., funds awarded during or before December 2014), the Part 200 Uniform
Requirements apply with respect to all funds under that award number (regardless of the
award date, and regardless of whether derived from the initial award or a supplemental
award) that are obligated on or after the acceptance date of this FY 2022 award.
For more information and resources on the Part 200 Uniform Requirements as they relate
to OJP awards and subawards ("subgrants"), see the OJP website at
https://ojp.gov/funding/Part200UniformRequirements.htm.
Record retention and access: Records pertinent to the award that the recipient (and any
subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier) must retain -- typically for a period of 3 years from
the date of submission of the final expenditure report (SF 425), unless a different retention
period applies -- and to which the recipient (and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any
tier) must provide access, include performance measurement information, in addition to the
financial records, supporting documents, statistical records, and other pertinent records
indicated at 2 C.F.R. 200.334.
In the event that an award -related question arises from documents or other materials
prepared or distributed by OJP that may appear to conflict with, or differ in some way
from, the provisions of the Part 200 Uniform Requirements, the recipient is to contact DCJ
promptly for clarification.

D. Reclassification of various statutory provisions to a new Title 34 of the United
States Code
On September 1, 2017, various statutory provisions previously codified elsewhere in the

entitled "Crime Control and Law Enforcement." The reclassification encompassed a
number of statutory provisions pertinent to DOJ awards (that is, DOJ grants and
cooperative agreements), including many provisions previously codified in Title 42 of the
U.S. Code.
Effective as of September 1, 2017, any reference in this award document to a statutory
provision that has been reclassified to the new Title 34 of the U.S. Code is to be read as a
reference to that statutory provision as reclassified to Title 34. This rule of construction
specifically includes references set out in award conditions, references set out in material
incorporated by reference through award conditions, and references set out in other award
requirements.

law to use the "de minimis" indirect cost rate described in 2 C.F.R. 200.414(f), and that
elects to use the "de minimis" indirect cost rate must comply with all associated
requirements in the Part 200 Uniform Requirements. The "de minimis" rate may be applied
only to modified total direct costs (MTDC) as defined by the Part 200 Uniform
Requirements
F. Requirement to report potentially duplicative funding
If the recipient currently has other active awards of federal funds, or if the recipient
receives any other award of federal funds during the period of performance for this award,
the recipient promptly must determine whether funds from any of those other federal
awards have been, are being, or are to be used (in whole or in part) for one or more of the
identical cost items for which funds are provided under this award. If so, the recipient must
promptly notify DCJ in writing of the potential duplication, and, if so requested by DCJ,
must seek a budget -modification and change -of -project to eliminate any inappropriate
duplication of funding.

must disclose that fact and certain related information to DCJ. For purposes of this
disclosure, high risk includes any status under which a federal awarding agency provides
additional oversight due to the recipient's past performance, or other programmatic or
financial concerns with the recipient. The recipient's disclosure must include the following:
1. The federal awarding agency that currently designates the recipient high risk, 2. The
date the recipient was designated high risk, 3. The high -risk point of contact at that federal

awarding agency (name, phone number, and email address), and 4. The reasons for the
high -risk status, as set out by the federal awarding agency
CC. Right to examine documents
The grantee, and any subrecipient ("subgrantee") at any tier, must authorize the DCJ or
DOJ awarding agency (OJP or OVW, as appropriate) and/or the Office of the Chief
Financial Officer (OCFO), and its representatives, access to and the right to examine all
records, books, paper, or documents related to this grant.
DD. Maintaining contact information
The grantee acknowledges that it is responsible for maintaining updated contact
information in the Grants Management System (GMS). To update information in GMS for
either the point of contact and/or the authorized representative, the grantee must submit a
Change in Project Officials (DCJ Form 4-B).
EE. Recipient integrity and performance matters: Requirement to report information
on certain civil, criminal, and administrative proceedings to SAM and FAPIIS
The recipient must comply with any and all applicable requirements regarding reporting of
information on civil, criminal, and administrative proceedings connected with (or
connected to the performance of) either this DOJ award or any other grant, cooperative
agreement, or procurement contract from the federal government. Under certain
circumstances, recipients of DOJ awards are required to report information about such
proceedings, through the federal System for Award Management (known as "SAM"), to
the designated federal integrity and performance system (currently, "FAPIIS").
The details of recipient obligations regarding the required reporting (and updating) of
information on certain civil, criminal, and administrative proceedings to the federal
designated integrity and performance system (currently, "FAPIIS") within SAM are posted
on the OJP web site at https://ojp.gov/funding/FAPIIS.htm and OVW web site at:
https://www.justice.gov/ovw/ award -conditions (Award Condition: Recipient Integrity and
Performance Matters, including Recipient Reporting to FAPIIS), and are incorporated by
reference here.
FF. Cooperating with DOJ Monitoring
The recipient agrees to cooperate with DCJ and DOJ monitoring of this award pursuant to
DCJ and DOJ's guidelines, protocols, and procedures, and to cooperate with DCJ and DOJ
(including the grant manager for this award and the Office of Chief Financial Officer
(OCFO)) requests related to such monitoring, including requests related to desk reviews
and/or site visits. The recipient agrees to provide to DCJ and DOJ all documentation
necessary for DCJ and/or DOJ to complete its monitoring tasks, including documentation
related to any subawards made under this award. Further, the recipient agrees to abide by
reasonable deadlines set by DCJ and/or DOJ for providing the requested documents.
Failure to cooperate with DCJ and/or DOJ's monitoring activities may result in actions that
affect the recipient's DOJ awards, including, but not limited to: withholdings and/or other
restrictions on the recipient's access to award funds; referral to the DOJ OIG for audit
review; designation of the recipient as a DOJ High Risk grantee; or termination of an
award(s).

GG. Required monitoring of subawards
The recipient must monitor subawards under this award in accordance with all applicable
statutes, regulations, award conditions, and the DOJ Grants Financial Guide, and must
include the applicable conditions of this award in any subaward. Among other things, the
recipient is responsible for oversight of subrecipient spending and monitoring of specific
outcomes and benefits attributable to use of award funds by subrecipients. The recipient
agrees to submit, upon request, documentation of its policies and procedures for
monitoring of subawards under this award.
RH. Safe policing and law enforcement subrecipients
If this award is a discretionary award, the recipient agrees that it will not make any
subawards to State, local, college, or university law enforcement agencies unless such
agencies have been certified by an approved independent credentialing body or have
started the certification process. To become certified, law enforcement agencies must meet
two mandatory conditions: (1) the agency's use of force policies adhere to all applicable
federal, state, and local laws; and (2) the agency's use of force policies prohibit chokeholds
except in situations where use of deadly force is allowed by law. For detailed information
on this certification requirement, see https://cops.usdoj.gov/SafePolicingEO.
IL OJP Grants Only - Subawards and Procurement Contracts under OJP Awards
The Office of Justice Programs (OJP) has developed the following guidance documents to
help clarify the differences between subawards and procurement contracts under an OJP
award and outline the compliance and reporting requirements for each.
Subawards under OJP Awards and Procurement Contracts under Awards: A Toolkit for
OJP Recipients. PDF Size: 221.25 KB
Checklist to Determine Subrecipient or Contractor Classification. PDF Size: 128.16 KB
Sole Source Justification Fact Sheet and Sole Source Review Checklist. PDF Size: 382.40
KB
Please contact your grant manager if you have any questions regarding subawards and
procurement contracts under this award.
This detailed guidance is designed to help grantees better understand how OJP will
categorize an agreement by an OJP award recipient with an outside entity for purposes of
the federal grants administrative requirements. It is important that each OJP grantee have a
full understanding which (if any) of its actions (for purposes of OJP and other federal
grants administrative requirements) are "subawards", and which are "procurement
contracts under an award." The substance of the relationship should be given greater
consideration than the form of agreement between the recipient and the outside
entity.
Whether an action — for federal grants administrative purposes — is a subaward or
procurement contract is a critical distinction as significantly different rules apply to
subawards and procurement contracts. If a grantee enters into an agreement that is a
subaward of an OJP award, specific rules apply — many of which are set by federal statutes
and DOJ regulations; others by award conditions. These rules place particular
responsibilities on an OJP recipient for any subawards the OJP recipient may make. The

UVI.ODKy II GI I VCR,. IV. MO4VOOJL - I O I O-4/ / O'OJL I,ULJ/11 G4L.LJG4U I
Federal Awards issued from 2022 Federal Grant Funds
rules determine much of what the written subaward agreement itself must require or
provide. The rules also determine much of what an OJP recipient must do both before and
after it makes a subaward. If a grantee enters into an agreement that is a procurement
contract under an OJP award, a substantially different set of federal rules applies.
For grant recipients with subawards, key compliance requirements include the following:
Having specific federal authorization prior to entering into any subaward under the
award.
Requiring subawardee compliance with 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Uniform Administrative
Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards.
Requiring progress and financial reporting.
Collection of performance data from the subawardee
Monitoring subawardees
Reporting subawards (over $30,000) as required by the Federal Funding
Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA).
Post -Award Requests for Subaward Authorization
For grantees with procurement contracts, key compliance requirements include the
following:
The grantee must comply with the Procurement Standards of 2 C.F.R. Part 200 and
provide for full and open competition.
A procurement contract must include all applicable contract provisions set out in
Appendix II of 2 C.F.R. Part 200.
All noncompetitive (sole source) procurements must comply with the requirements
outlined in 2 C.F.R. 200.
Sole source procurements that do not exceed the Simplified Acquisition
Threshold (currently $250,000) must have written justification for the
noncompetitive procurement action maintained in the procurement file. If a
procurement file does not have the documentation that meets the criteria
outlined in 2 C.F.R. 200, the procurement expenditures may not be
allowable.
All Sole source procurement must be approved by DCJ.
JJ. Authorized Official
The grantee understands that, in accepting this award, the Authorized Representative
declares and certifies, among other things, that he or she possesses the requisite legal
authority to accept the award on behalf of the recipient entity and, in so doing, accepts (or
adopts) all material requirements that relate to conduct throughout the period of
performance under this award. The recipient further understands, and agrees, that it will
not assign anyone to the role of Authorized Representative during the period of

performance under the award without first ensuring that the individual has the requisite
legal authority.
5. FINANCIAL REQUIREMENTS
A. Non -supplantation
The recipient agrees that grant funds will be used to supplement, not supplant, non-federal
funds that would otherwise be available for the activities under this grant.
Supplanting arises when a Recipient reduces non-federal funds for an activity specifically
because federal funds are available (or are expected to be available) to fund that same
activity. Federal funds must be used to supplement existing State or local funds for
program activities, and may not replace (that is, may not "supplant") State or local funds
that have been appropriated or allocated for the same purpose. Additionally, federal
funding may not replace State or local funding that is required by law.
When supplanting is prohibited, potential supplanting will be the subject of DCJ
monitoring and audit. Should a question of supplanting arise, the grantee will be required
to substantiate that any reduction in non-federal resources occurred for reasons other than
the receipt or expected receipt of federal funds.
B. Misuse of award funds
The recipient understands and agrees that misuse of award funds may result in a range of
penalties, including suspension of current and future funds, suspension or debarment from
federal grants, recoupment of monies provided under an award, and civil and/or criminal
penalties.
C. Limitation on use of funds to approved activities
The recipient agrees that grant funds will be used only for the purposes described in this
award. The grantee must not undertake any work or activities that are not described in this
award, and must not use staff, equipment, or other goods or services paid for with grant
funds for such work or activities, without prior written approval from DCJ.
D. Consultant compensation rates
The recipient acknowledges that consultants paid with award funds generally may not be
paid at a rate in excess of $81.25 per hour, not to exceed $650 per day. To exceed this
specified maximum rate, recipients must submit to DCJ a detailed justification and have
such justification approved by DCJ, prior to obligation or expenditure of such funds.
Issuance of this award or approval of the award budget alone does not indicate approval of
any consultant rate in excess of $81.25 per hour, not to exceed $650 per day. Although
prior approval is not required for consultant rates below this specified maximum rate,
recipients are required to maintain documentation to support all daily or hourly consultant
rates.
E. Limit on use of grant funds for grantees' employees' salaries
With respect to this award, federal funds may not be used to pay cash compensation (salary
plus bonuses) to any employee of the award recipient at a rate that exceeds 110% of the
maximum annual salary payable to a member of the federal government's Senior Executive
Page 17 of 24 10/31/2022

Service (SES) at an agency with a Certified SES Performance Appraisal System for that
year. (An award recipient may compensate an employee at a higher rate, provided the
amount in excess of this compensation limitation is paid with non-federal funds.)
This limitation on compensation rates allowable under this award may be waived on an
individual basis at the discretion the DCJ via DOJ.
6. CIVIL RIGHTS REQUIREMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH DOJ AWARDS
The Office for Civil Rights (OCR), Office of Justice Programs (OJP), U.S. Department of
Justice (DOJ) has been delegated the responsibility for ensuring that recipients of federal
financial assistance from the OJP, the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services
(COPS), and the Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) are not engaged in
discrimination prohibited by law. Several federal civil rights laws, such as Title VI of the
Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, require recipients
of federal financial assistance to give assurances that they will comply with those laws. Taken
together, these civil rights laws prohibit recipients of federal financial assistance from DOJ
from discriminating in services and employment because of race, color, national origin,
religion, disability, sex, and, for grants authorized under the Violence Against Women Act,
sexual orientation and gender identity. Recipients are also prohibited from discriminating in
services because of age. For a complete review of these civil rights laws and
nondiscrimination requirements, in connection with DOJ awards, see
https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegalOverview/CivilRightsRequirements.htm.
If you are a recipient of grant awards under the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act
or the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act and your agency is part of a criminal
justice system, there are two additional obligations that may apply in connection with the
awards: (1) complying with the regulation relating to Equal Employment Opportunity
Programs (EEOPs); and (2) submitting findings of discrimination to OCR. For additional
information regarding the EEOP requirement, see 28 CFR Part 42, subpart E, and for
additional information regarding requirements when there is an adverse finding, see 28C.F.R.
§§ 42.204(c), .205(c)(5).
The OCR is available to help you and your organization meet the civil rights requirements
that are associated with DOJ grant funding. If you would like the OCR to assist you in
fulfilling your organization's civil rights or nondiscrimination responsibilities as a recipient of
federal financial assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the OCR at
askOCR@ojp.usdoj.gov.
The Grantee hereby agrees that it will comply, and all of its subrecipients ("subgrantees") will
comply, with the applicable provisions of:
A. Civil rights laws and nondiscrimination provisions
States and units of local government, public and nonprofit institutions of higher education,
nonprofit organizations, for-profit businesses, and other recipients of DOJ grants may be
subject to various federal civil rights laws for reasons other than their receipt of DOJ
funds. Some examples include federal civil rights laws related to discrimination on the
basis of race, color, national origin, sex, religion, or disability.

Federal Awards issued from 2022 Federal Grant Funds
Because a DOJ award is a form of "federal financial assistance," the recipients of a DOJ
award (and any "subrecipient" at any tier) must comply with additional civil -rights -related
requirements above and beyond those that otherwise would apply.
In general, these additional requirements fall into one of two categories:
1. Civil rights laws (sometimes referred to as "cross -cutting" federal civil rights
statutes). These apply to essentially any entity that receives an award of federal
financial assistance -- regardless of which federal agency awards the grant or
cooperative agreement -- and encompass the "program or activity" funded in whole
or in part with the federal financial assistance.
2. Nondiscrimination provisions. These are requirements or restrictions that apply to
certain OJP or OVW awards -- in addition to the civil rights laws -- because they
are set out in a statute that applies specifically to one or more particular OJP or
OVW grant programs, or to OJP or OVW awards made under a particular legal
authority. Much like the civil rights laws, these provisions apply variously to the
programs, activity, or undertaking funded in whole or in part by OJP or OVW, and
are described herein.
a. Such nondiscrimination provisions apply to some, but not all, OJP or
OVW grant programs.
b. The nondiscrimination provisions that apply to an OJP or OVW award
(above and beyond the requirements in "cross -cutting" civil rights laws)
may vary from award to award, even for awards made during the same
fiscal year.
c. Typically, no more than one of these nondiscrimination provisions will
apply to any particular OJP or OVW award.
General information on the civil rights laws that apply to every OJP or OVW award, and
on the nondiscrimination provisions that apply to some OJP or OVW awards, is available
at https://ojp.gov/about/ocr/statutes-regulations.
NOTE: As discussed in more detail below, if a civil rights law or nondiscrimination
provision prohibits discrimination in employment on the basis of religion, the prohibition
is read together with the provisions of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993.
B. Civil rights compliance: Access to services and benefits by individuals with limited
English proficiency
Compliance with the civil rights laws entails, among other things, taking reasonable steps
to ensure that individuals with limited English proficiency (LEP) have meaningful access
to DOJ-funded programs or services. An individual with limited English proficiency is
one whose first language is not English and who has a limited ability to read, write, speak,
or understand English. To assist recipients of DOJ awards in meeting their obligations
with respect to such individuals, DOJ has published a guidance document, available on the
LEP.gov website.

C. Certification
Each grantee by accepting this award, certifies that it will comply (and it will require any
subrecipient at any tier to comply) with applicable civil rights laws and nondiscrimination
provisions. An additional DCJ Form 30, will be required prior to the disbursement of any
funds.
D. Nondiscrimination provisions and the Religious Freedom Restoration Act
As noted earlier, a nondiscrimination provision that deals with discrimination in
employment on the basis of religion is read together with the pertinent provisions of the
Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993. As a result, even if an otherwise -applicable
nondiscrimination provision states that a grantee or subrecipient may not discriminate in
employment based on religion, a DOJ recipient or subrecipient that is a faith -based
organization may consider religion in hiring, provided it satisfies particular requirements.
An DOJ recipient that is a faith -based organization and that seeks to consider religion in
hiring despite an applicable nondiscrimination provision must properly execute and
submit to DCJ a specific formal certification to DCJ to the effect that --
1. The grantee is a religious organization that sincerely believes that providing
the programs or services funded by the DOJ award is an expression of its
religious beliefs, that employing individuals of particular religious belief is
important to its religious exercise, and that having to abandon its religious
hiring practice to receive federal funding would substantially burden its
religious exercise.
2. The grantee will not discriminate against beneficiaries (or prospective
beneficiaries) of the programs or services funded by the DOJ award on the
basis of religion, a religious belief, a refusal to hold a religious belief, or a
refusal to attend or participate in a religious practice.
3. The grantee will keep any explicitly religious activities separate in time or
location from programs or services funded by the DOJ award.
4. The grantee will not require beneficiaries (or prospective beneficiaries) of
programs or services funded by the DOJ award to attend or participate in any
explicitly religious activities. Any such participation will be purely voluntary.
To make the required certification, an appropriate, authorized official of the grantee
organization must execute the Certification Regarding Hiring Practices on the Basis of
Religion on behalf of the grantee. A copy of the executed certification must be submitted
to DCJ. The grantee must retain the signed original on file as part of its records for the
DOJ award.
An DOJ recipient that executes and submits a certification that satisfies these
requirements ordinarily may consider religion in hiring. Different rules may apply,
however, if there is good reason to question the truthfulness of the certification, or if DCJ
determines that it is necessary to restrict the recipient from considering religion in hiring
to further a compelling government interest. (If DCJ makes such a determination, the
Page 20 of 24 10/31/2022

Federal Awards issued from 2022 Federal Grant Funds
DCJ may impose limitations that represent the least restrictive means of furthering the
compelling government interest.)
The rules that apply to subrecipients of DOJ awards that are faith -based organizations are
similar, except that the subrecipient is to submit the required certification to the grantee.
E. Overview of "Civil Rights Laws"
Important "civil rights laws" that apply to all federal financial assistance -- and to all
recipients and subrecipients of DOJ awards made in FY 2017 (and in FY 2018), are
these:
• Section 601 of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (codified at 42 U.S.C.
2000d)

No otherwise qualified individual with a disability in the United States, as
defined in [29 U.S.C. 705(20)], shall, solely by reason of her or his
disability, be excluded from the participation in, be denied the benefits of,
or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving
Federal financial assistance[.]
DOJ implementing regulation: Subpart G of 28 C.F.R. Part 42.
Section 901 of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (codified at 20
U.S.C. 1681)
Statutory provision:

The program solicitation, Companion Guide, and any program specific FAQs are hereby
incorporated by reference into this award.
Subrecipient program income
The recipient understands and agrees that it has responsibility for approval of program
income earned by subrecipients. Program income, as defined by 2 C.F.R. 200.1, means
gross income earned by a non-federal entity that is directly generated by a supported
activity or earned as a result of the federal award during the period of performance.
Without prior approval, program income must be deducted from total allowable costs to
determine the net allowable costs. In order to add program income to a subaward,
subrecipients must seek approval from the recipient prior to generating any program
income. Any program income added to a subaward must be used to support activities that
were approved in the budget and follow the conditions of the subaward agreement. Any
program income approved by the recipient must be reported by the subrecipient to the
recipient so that it is reported on the quarterly Program Income Financial Report (DCJ

dollars only" or "Recipients of OJP grant dollars only" which only apply to OVW funded awards
References to the DUI apply to both OJP and OVW funded grants
Individual awards will also include special conditions Those additional conditions may relate to the
particular statute, program, or solicitation under which the award is made, the substance of the funded
application, the grantee's performance under other federal awards, the grantee's legal status (e g , as a for-
profit entity), or to other pertinent considerations
2. RECIPIENT

or assurances submitted by or on behalf of the recipient that relate to conduct during the period of
performance also is a material requirement of this award
OR' Awards Only: Limited Exceptions In certain special circumstances, the U S Department
of Justice ("DOJ") may determine that it will not enforce, or enforce only in part, one or more
requirements otherwise applicable to the award Any such exceptions regarding enforcement,
including any such exceptions made during the period of performance, are (or will be during the

all material requirements of the award, and specifically adopts, as if personally executed by the
authorized recipient official, all assurances or certifications submitted by or on behalf of the recipient
that relate to conduct during the period of performance.
Failure to comply with any one or more of these award requirements -- whether a condition set out in
full below, a condition incorporated by reference below, or a certification or assurance related to
conduct during the award period -- may result in the Division of Criminal Justice (DCJ), Office of
Justice Programs ("OJP") or Office on Violence Against Women ("OVW") taking appropriate action
with respect to the recipient and the award. Among other things, the Department of Justice "DOJ" may
withhold award funds, disallow costs, or suspend or terminate the award. DOJ, including OJP, and DCJ
also may take other legal action as appropriate.

permitted by law. Should it be held, instead, that the provision is utterly invalid or -unenforceable, such
provision shall be deemed severable from this award.

6. CIVIL RIGHTS REQUIREMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH DOJ AWARDS
The Office for Civil Rights (OCR), Office of Justice Programs (OJP), U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has
been delegated the responsibility for ensuring that recipients of federal financial assistance from the OJP,
the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS), and the Office on Violence Against Women
(OVW) are not engaged in discrimination prohibited by law. Several federal civil rights laws, such as Title
VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, require recipients of
federal financial assistance to give assurances that they will comply with those laws. Taken together, these
civil rights laws prohibit recipients of federal financial assistance from the DOJ from discriminating in
services and employment because of race, color, national origin, religion, disability, sex, and, for grants
authorized under the Violence Against Women Act, sexual orientation and gender identity. Recipients are
also prohibited from discriminating in services because of age. For a complete review of these civil rights
laws and nondiscrimination requirements, in connection with DOJ awards, see
https://ojp.gov/funding/Explore/LegalOverview/Civil RightsRequirements.htm.
If you are a recipient of grant awards under the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act or the Juvenile
Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act and your agency is part of a criminal justice system, there are two
additional obligations that may apply in connection with the awards: (1) complying with the regulation
relating to Equal Employment Opportunity Programs (EEOPs); and (2) submitting findings of
discrimination to OCR. For additional information regarding the EEOP requirement, see 28 CFR Part 42,
subpart E, and for additional information regarding requirements when there is an adverse finding, see
28C.F.R. §§ 42.204(c), .205(c)(5).
The OCR is available to help you and your organization meet the civil rights requirements that are
associated with DOJ grant funding. If you would like the OCR to assist you in fulfilling your organization's
civil rights or nondiscrimination responsibilities as a recipient of federal financial assistance, please do not
hesitate to contact the OCR at askOCR@ojp.usdoj.gov.
The Grantee hereby agrees that it will comply, and all of its subrecipients ("subgrantees") will comply, with
the applicable provisions of:
A. Civil rights laws and nondiscrimination provisions
[Same as years: 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 - except as highlighted]
States and units of local government, public and nonprofit institutions of higher education, nonprofit
organizations, for-profit businesses, and other recipients of DOJ grants may be subject to various federal
civil rights laws for reasons other than their receipt of DOJ funds. Some examples include federal civil
Pagc 16 of 21
Federal Awards issued from 2023 Federal Grant Funds
rights laws related to discnmmation on the basis of race, color, national ongm, sex, religion, or
disability
Because a DOJ award is a form of "federal financial assistance," the recipients of a DOJ award (and any
"subrecipient" at any tier) must comply with additional civil -rights -related requirements above and
beyond those that otherwise would apply
In general, these additional requirements fall into one of two categories
1 Civil rights laws (sometimes referred to as "cross -cutting" federal civil rights statutes) These apply
to essentially any entity that receives an award of federal financial assistance -- regardless of which
federal agency awards the grant or cooperative agreement -- and encompass the "program or
activity" funded in whole or in part with the federal financial assistance
2 Nondiscrimination provisions These are requirements or restrictions that apply to certain OJP or
OVW awards -- to addition to the civil rights laws -- because they are set out in a statute that applies
specifically to one or more particular OJP or OVW grant programs, or to OJP or OVW awards made
under a particular legal authority Much like the civil rights laws, these provisions apply variously to
the programs, activity, or undertaking funded in whole or in part by OJP or OVW, and are described
herein
a Such nondiscrimination provisions apply to some, but not all, OJP or OVW grant programs
b The nondiscrimination provisions that apply to an OW or OVW award (above and beyond the
requirements in "cross -cutting" civil rights laws) may vary from award to award, even for awards
made dunng the same fiscal year
c Typically, no more than one of these nondiscrimination provisions will apply to any particular
OJP or OVW award
General information on the civil rights laws that apply to every OJP or OVW award, and on the
nondiscrimination provisions that apply to some OJP or OVW awards, is available at
https //owp gov/about/ocr/statutes-regulations
NOTE As discussed in more detail below, if a civil rights law or nondiscrimination provision prohibits
discrimination in employment on the basis of religion, the prohibition is read together with the
provisions of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1993
B. Civil rights compliance: Access to services and benefits by individuals with limited English
proficiency
[Same as years 2020, 2021, 2022]
Compliance with the civil rights laws entails, among other things, taking reasonable steps to ensure that
mdividuals with limited English proficiency (LEP) have meaningful access to DOJ-funded programs or
services An individual with limited English proficiency is one whose first language is not English and
who has a limited ability to read, write, speak, or understand English To assist recipients of DOJ
awards in meeting their obligations with respect to such individuals, DOJ has published a guidance
document, available on the LEP gov webstte
C. Certification
[Same as years 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022]
Page 17 of 21
Federal Awards issued from 2023 Federal Grant Funds
Each grantee by accepting this award, certifies that it will comply (and it will require any subrecipient at
any tier to comply) with applicable civil rights laws and nondiscrimination provisions. An additional
DCJ Form 30, will be required prior to the disbursement of any funds.
D. Nondiscrimination provisions and the Religious Freedom Restoration Act
[Same as years: 2022]
As noted earlier, a nondiscrimination provision that deals with discrimination in employment on the
basis of religion is read together with the pertinent provisions of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act
of 1993. As a result, even if an otherwise -applicable nondiscrimination provision states that a grantee or
subrecipient may not discriminate in employment based on religion, a DOJ recipient or subrecipient that
is a faith -based organization may consider religion in hiring, provided it satisfies particular
requirements.
An DOJ recipient that is a faith -based organization and that seeks to consider religion in hiring despite
an applicable nondiscrimination provision must properly execute and submit to DCJ a specific formal
certification to DCJ to the effect that --
1. The grantee is a religious organization that sincerely believes that providing the programs or services
funded by the DOJ award is an expression of its religious beliefs, that employing individuals of
particular religious belief is important to its religious exercise, and that having to abandon its
religious hiring practice to receive federal funding would substantially burden its religious exercise.
2. The grantee will not discriminate against beneficiaries (or prospective beneficiaries) of the programs
or services funded by the DOJ award on the basis of religion, a religious belief, a refusal to hold a
religious belief, or a refusal to attend or participate in a religious practice.
3. The grantee will keep any explicitly religious activities separate in time or location from programs or
services funded by the DOJ award.
4. The grantee will not require beneficiaries (or prospective beneficiaries) of programs or services
funded by the DOJ award to attend or participate in any explicitly religious activities. Any such
participation will be purely voluntary.
To make the required certification, an appropriate, authorized official of the grantee organization must
execute the Certification Regarding Hiring Practices on the Basis of Religion on behalf of the grantee.
A copy of the executed certification must be submitted to DCJ. The grantee must retain the signed
original on file as part of its records for the DOJ award.
An DOJ recipient that executes and submits a certification that satisfies these requirements ordinarily
may consider religion in hiring. Different rules may apply, however, if there is good reason to question
the truthfulness of the certification, or if DCJ determines that it is necessary to restrict the recipient from
considering religion in hiring to further a compelling government interest. (If DCJ makes such a
determination, the DCJ may impose limitations that represent the least restrictive means of furthering
the compelling government interest.)
The rules that apply to subrecipients of DOJ awards that are faith -based organizations are similar, except
that the subrecipient is to submit the required certification to the grantee.
E. Overview of "Civil Rights Laws"
[Same as years: 2022 - except as highlighted]

subrecipients of DOJ awards made in FY 2023, are these:
