*Abstract:* The Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) administers the Financial Assistance Grants for Victims of Sexual Assault, Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, and Stalking Program (FAV Program). The FAV Program supports victim service providers, Tribal governments, and Tribal organizations to provide flexible financial assistance to survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking, alongside other victim services. Flexible financial assistance is intended to support survivors in achieving safety, stability, and healing by paying for necessities that are not easily met by traditional service providers and with the flexibility to meet self-identified needs quickly. For Fiscal Year (FY) 2025, OVW sent a Letter of Interest to entities that had the highest scoring applications not selected for FY 2024 FAV Program funding and that are located in a state where no FAV Program awards were issued last year. Based on responses and available funding, OVW invited 13 applicants to apply for FY 2025 FAV Program funding.
