Grants for Native American tribal organizations - State

The 2025 Federal Victims of Crime Act Grant Program, administered by the Kansas Governor’s Grants Program (KGGP), aims to provide direct services to crime victims. While the prompt asks for "foundation mission alignment" and "Foundation's strategic priorities and theory of change," the provided text does not mention a specific foundation but rather a state grants program. Therefore, this breakdown will focus on the program's alignment with its stated purpose of assisting crime victims and its strategic approach as outlined. The grant targets a broad range of crime victims, with a specific focus on those who have experienced adult sexual assault, domestic violence, and child physical and sexual abuse. Additionally, an emphasis is placed on "previously underserved" victims of violent crime, which includes, but is not limited to, victims of federal crimes, survivors of homicide victims, and victims of assault, robbery, gang violence, hate and bias crimes, intoxicated drivers, bank robbery, economic exploitation, fraud, or elder abuse. The overall impact goal is to stabilize victims' lives, address their emotional and physical needs, facilitate their understanding and participation in the criminal justice system, and provide measures of safety. The program prioritizes victims of adult sexual assault, domestic violence, and child physical and sexual abuse, allocating a minimum of 10 percent of each federal fiscal year’s grant to each of these categories. An additional 10 percent minimum is dedicated to previously underserved victims of violent crime. This strategic allocation ensures that funds are directed towards some of the most vulnerable populations. Eligibility extends to units of state or local government, tribal organizations, and nonprofit community and faith-based organizations, with a required 20% non-federal cash or in-kind match. Expected outcomes include improved emotional and physical well-being for crime victims, enhanced stability in their lives post-victimization, increased understanding and participation in the criminal justice system, and improved personal safety through measures like property repair. The grant duration is three years, from October 1, 2024, to September 30, 2027, allowing for sustained support and measurable progress in addressing the needs of crime victims across all Kansas counties. The consistent allocation percentages for priority and underserved groups suggest a clear theory of change: by focusing resources on specific, high-need victim populations, the program aims to achieve significant positive impacts on their recovery and safety.

The project sites eligible for the grant must be located on 'farm and ranch' property, encompassing both private and public land, where the owner is not held responsible for the illegal disposal. The definition of 'farm and ranch' property can be found in the Eligible Geographies section below. Grantees are given approximately two years to complete the project(s). The sites should be fully remediated (cleaned up) using grant funds, or a combination of grant funds and in-kind contributions in terms of funds or services. The funding covers various costs, including Administrative, Recycling/Disposal (tires), Equipment, Material, and Personnel expenses. If necessary, measures for abatement and prevention, such as site security and public education/outreach efforts, should also be addressed. The program encourages innovative approaches. For further information and requirements, please refer to the Notice of Funds Available FY24-25 webpage, particularly the Application Guidelines and Instructions and Procedures and Requirements resource documents. The application typically includes several items for each project/site, such as Budget, Land Use/Zoning Designation, photos, Property Affidavit, Site Characterization, map, Work Plan, and Resolution. The Resolution is carried out through the governing body of the applicant (additional information is available). It is possible to include multiple projects/sites within a single application.

This solicitation presents an opportunity to shift towards on-site clean, dispatchable generation technologies, addressing the evolving generation mix and ensuring an ample supply of resources to meet the demands of critical facilities during the net peak period while maintaining system reliability. These technologies are well-suited to ensure a reliable and resilient energy supply for critical infrastructure on-site, including communications, healthcare, government offices, and many more, to provide on-demand load and peak matching. As such, this solicitation will focus on advancing emerging clean, dispatchable generation technologies, such as fuel cells or linear generators, using 100 percent renewable fuels, especially for critical sectors like industrial and commercial that have operational needs during peak hours. The projects from this solicitation will be deployed in these critical sectors and will reduce their demand on the grid, thereby decreasing the reliance from fossil-gas power plants during times of high electricity demand. Expected outcomes include on-site pilot-scale deployment of cost-effective and highly efficient clean, dispatchable generation technologies that will support energy demand of critical facilities and reduce the strain from the state’s electric grid while significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions and criteria pollutants by curbing fossil-based generation. Ultimately, these projects will contribute to supporting the state's decarbonization goals, enhancing the reliability and strengthening the resilience of the state’s electric grid by increasing the availability of on-site clean, dispatchable generation technologies.

The Business Oregon grant funding aims to address longstanding economic inequities by providing culturally responsive services, outreach, support, and resources to eligible beneficiaries. Unlike traditional poverty alleviation programs, the EEIP is a wealth-building program that prioritizes outcomes related to self-sufficiency, economic stability, and economic equity. The program is funded by an $8 million one-time investment from the Oregon State Legislature. Successful applicants will demonstrate a meaningful track record of delivering programs or resources within key eligible areas: land ownership and other real property acquisition (including principal residences), entrepreneurship and business development, workforce development, or intergenerational wealth-building. Organizations receiving funds will directly provide outreach, support, and programming to eligible beneficiaries in one or more of these areas. Eligible beneficiaries are defined as “disadvantaged individuals, families, businesses, and communities” whose future is at risk due to two or more risk factors, as detailed in ORS 285B.761. Awards must be aimed at narrowing wealth gaps. Preference will be given to intermediary organizations with a proven track record of successfully delivering programs and resources that align with the goals and aspirations of the EEIP and possess the capacity to complete programs and expend all funds by June 30, 2025. Expected outcomes include increased self-sufficiency, economic stability, and economic equity for disadvantaged individuals, families, businesses, and communities in Oregon. The program's strategic priorities are centered on wealth-building, a departure from traditional poverty alleviation, to foster long-term economic well-being and reduce wealth disparities across the state. This initiative reflects a theory of change that by investing in key economic development areas and supporting capable intermediary organizations, sustainable economic growth and equity can be achieved for at-risk populations.
