Short Description
The FY25 Preventive Health and Human Services Block Grant, funded by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention includes sexual offense set-aside allocations are issued per grant period by federal partners to states and jurisdictions. This grant award will provide the Illinois Coalition Against Sexual Assault (ICASA) with resources to address Healthy People 2030 (https://odphp.health.gov). The current HP2030 goals we are addressing are Goal: Prevent violence related injuries and deaths: • Reduce adolescent sexual violence by anyone — IVP 17. Current national status: getting worse. • Reduce sexual or physical adolescent dating violence — IVP 18. Current national status: getting worse. • Reduce nonfatal child abuse and neglect — IVP 16. Target met or exceeded. These objectives will be met by providing administrative assistance to rape crisis centers to conduct sexual violence prevention programs; ensure the centers are compliant with education and fiscal requirements; and ensure quality of statewide prevention education through training and technical assistance with local rape crisis centers. Also, the amount should be 267,477 in all places it looks like it auto populated from a previous form in one section. I am working on getting the appropriation code and will send it when I find out the information.
