Eligible applicants are limited to: States, units of local government, Tribal governments or Tribal organizations, population specific organizations with demonstrated experience in assisting individuals over 50 years of age, victim service providers with demonstrated experience in addressing domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking, and State, Tribal, or territorial domestic violence or sexual assault coalitions.
