Opportunity Information: Apply for BJA 2018 13628
The BJA FY 18 Preventing Violence Against Law Enforcement Officers and Ensuring Officer Resilience and Survivability (VALOR) initiative is a U.S. Department of Justice funding opportunity administered by the Office of Justice Programs, Bureau of Justice Assistance. It is designed to strengthen law enforcement safety and improve officer wellness by supporting national-level efforts that reduce violence against officers and increase their resilience and survivability. In practical terms, the program emphasizes improving the broader criminal justice system by investing in strategies, training, and support mechanisms that help officers better anticipate, prevent, and respond to threats, while also addressing the physical and mental demands of the profession.
This opportunity is offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement, which generally means BJA expects to have substantial involvement during the project period rather than simply issuing funds and stepping back. The funded work is framed as a set of national initiatives, with a strong focus on training and technical assistance that can be strategically targeted to identified law enforcement safety and wellness needs. Projects under this umbrella typically align with activities such as developing or delivering specialized training, creating practical tools and guidance for agencies, providing direct technical assistance to departments, and spreading evidence-informed approaches that can be adopted across jurisdictions.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number BJA-2018-13628 and CFDA number 16.738. The solicitation was created on March 15, 2018, with an original closing date of April 30, 2018. BJA anticipated making about three awards, with an award ceiling of up to $1,000,000 per award. The program sits at the intersection of law enforcement and workforce development priorities, as reflected in its activity categories of law, justice and legal services as well as education, employment, labor, and training.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning the opportunity is open to a wide range of applicant types, provided they meet any additional eligibility conditions described in the full solicitation. Overall, VALOR FY 2018 is best understood as a competitive federal investment aimed at reducing officer victimization and strengthening officer performance and well-being through scalable, national-impact training and technical assistance efforts.Apply for BJA 2018 13628
