National Sexual Violence Technical Assistance Resource Center for Prevention of Sexual Violence

The purpose of this NOFO is to support a national technical assistance (TA) resource center to provide sexual violence (SV) prevention TA, both subject matter content and logistical, to CDC’s Rape Prevention and Education (RPE) program recipients (e.g., SHDs) and their programmatic partners (sub-recipients). Technical assistance activities will include resource development, including information tools, training materials, and conducting trainings (i.e., online webinars and in-person). In addition, the national TA resource center will maintain a central resource library to collect and disseminate guidance developed and information related to SV prevention. All of the resources and information developed for RPE program recipients will also be widely disseminated to national SV practitioners. This NOFO will strengthen the SV prevention field by providing information and TA on the planning, implementation and evaluation of programs, practices, and policies that seek to prevent SV. Having a specific focus on increasing SV prevention programs’ capacity to implement and evaluate strategies will yield impactful practices.
