REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS
Request for Proposals (RFP) for Child Sexual Abuse Prevention (CSAP) Funding
The Children’s Trust Fund is pleased to announce the availability of new funding for projects designed to prevent child sexual abuse in Missouri. This four-year funding program will begin July 1, 2023 and will award up to $500,000 annually through June 30, 2027. Two types of proposals will receive consideration for funding:
- New, collaborative community initiatives that emphasize primary prevention and include both victimization and perpetration prevention strategies;
- Statewide/systems initiatives designed to create broad impact related to primary child sexual abuse prevention.
Applications for this funding opportunity are due by April 23, 2023 at 11:59 pm. Applicants can be from anywhere in Missouri, but proposals will be partially evaluated on the basis of whether they serve a high-poverty area, and current CTF child sexual abuse prevention grantees are not eligible to apply for additional community initiative funding.
