Summary

Overview

About the AG’s Office The New Jersey Attorney General oversees the Department of Law and Public Safety (LPS or the Department), which consists of more than 8,000 employees across 24 divisions, offices, and commissions. In this role, the Attorney General serves as both the state’s chief law enforcement officer and its chief lawyer. The Attorney General is nominated and appointed by the Governor with the advice and consent of the Senate. Competitive Funds for New Jersey Hospital Based Violence Intervention Program (NJHVIP) - Hudson County The purpose of the New Jersey Hospital-Based Violence Intervention Program (NJHVIP) is to support programming that connects victims to services beginning in a hospital or other medical setting to services outside of the hospital to increase support for victims of crime, improve their outcomes, and reduce future victimization. This funding opportunity is focused on the continuity of services to victims and communities in Hudson County, NJ through the New Jersey Hospital Based Violence Intervention Program. Additionally, this NJHVIP program is designed to continue the building of an infrastructure that supports innovative community-based responses to violence and a network of community based public safety interventions. NJHVIP supports projects that are hospital-based or hospital-linked partnerships between a hospital trauma center, hospital emergency department or a local health department, and one or more community-based organizations that support crime victims outside of the hospital. Examples of those services include high-risk interventions to prevent retaliation, case management, and culturally appropriate services that promote healing. Recognizing that underserved victims are often served exclusively by community-based organizations, this NOAF requires partnerships with at least one community-based direct victim service organization. Partnerships may consist of direct victim services provided within the hospital setting and/or services provided externally in the community. This solicitation will fund one HVIP program that utilizes evidence-based models, practices, policies, and partnerships that will operate hospital-connected programs that support crime victims and ensure that culturally appropriate victim services are available. Emphasis should be placed on services for victims of community gun violence, stabbings and physical assaults. Applications should represent partnerships; however, one eligible entity must be the subrecipient with primary responsibility for managing the grant and other partners should be proposed as contractors or subrecipients.
