Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0005142
The U.S. Department of State, Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons (TIP Office) released a discretionary funding opportunity in 2018 focused specifically on reducing and preventing child trafficking in Jamaica. The program is framed around a new Child Protection Compact (CPC) Partnership, which is a structured collaboration model the U.S. government uses with selected countries to advance coordinated, measurable improvements in how a country prevents trafficking, protects victims, and prosecutes offenders. In practical terms, the grant competition was designed to fund projects that directly support anti-child-trafficking work in Jamaica in alignment with the priorities and commitments laid out under that CPC Partnership.
The opportunity was issued under Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0005142 and was to be funded through a cooperative agreement, meaning the TIP Office anticipated substantial involvement during implementation rather than a fully hands-off grant. Cooperative agreements typically involve closer coordination with the funder on project direction, performance monitoring, and key deliverables, so applicants would need to be prepared for ongoing collaboration and reporting expectations consistent with that instrument type. The activity category is listed as "Other" (with additional clarification referenced in the full notice), which usually signals that the work may cut across multiple standard categories such as victim services, law enforcement capacity, justice-sector strengthening, prevention campaigns, policy reform, and multi-agency coordination.
In terms of who could apply, eligibility is described broadly as "Others," with additional details referenced in the full announcement. That label commonly indicates the competition may be open to a range of non-federal entities such as non-profit organizations, NGOs, international organizations, and potentially other qualified institutions, subject to the more specific eligibility rules and documentation requirements in the complete notice. The assistance listing includes CFDA number 19.019, which corresponds to the TIP Office assistance program area.
The funding parameters highlighted an award ceiling of up to USD 4,500,000. While the notice lists "ExpectedAwards: 0" in the provided data, that field is sometimes a placeholder in summary extracts and does not necessarily mean no awards would be made; the definitive expectations would be clarified in the full solicitation. The opportunity was posted on June 1, 2018, with an original closing date of July 31, 2018, giving prospective applicants roughly two months to develop and submit proposals.
Overall, this solicitation was a targeted call for well-designed, evidence-informed projects that could help Jamaica strengthen its systems and frontline responses to child trafficking under the CPC framework. A competitive proposal under this type of notice would generally be expected to show a clear theory of change, strong local partnerships, realistic implementation planning, measurable outcomes, and an approach that complements national efforts rather than duplicating them, all while meeting the TIP Office's typical emphasis on survivor-centered, trauma-informed, and rights-respecting practices.Apply for SFOP0005142
