The Office of Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) is a key component of the Department’s and ACN’s efforts to advance the Administration’s top national security and foreign policy objectives in a cost-effective and impactful manner.  CTR uses programming and training with foreign partners to advance President Trump’s America First Investment Policy (NSPM-3) and America’s AI Action plan by disrupting the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) exploitation of critical U.S. intellectual property (IP) and dual-use technologies, including AI, biotechnologies, quantum, semiconductor, and space technologies, through research security, cybersecurity and IP protection training.  As the programmatic lead for the Foundational Infrastructure for the Responsible Use of Small Modular Reactor [SMR] Technology (FIRST) program, CTR implements Section 8(e) of EO 14299 on Deploying Advanced Nuclear Reactor Technologies for National Security by helping U.S. vendors deploy secure, safe U.S. SMRs to strategic regions, including Latin America, the Indo-Pacific, and the Middle East, to outcompete strategic competitors for decades-long partnerships, generating multi-billion dollar deals for U.S. companies and creating thousands of American jobs.  CTR implements maximum pressure on Iran (NSPM-2), by training foreign partner countries to implement U.S. sanctions on Iran’s nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programs, and disrupts proliferation networks tied to the CCP, DPRK, and Russia that undermine U.S. interests.  CTR also advances EO 14292 by preventing U.S. adversaries from advancing biological weapons capabilities through targeted biosecurity, physical security, and cybersecurity trainings and disrupts Iran’s and other U.S. adversary chemical weapons programs through assisting supply chain security of precursor chemicals and equipment. Finally, CTR advances EO 14285 Unleashing America’s Offshore Critical Minerals, by training critical mineral holders to derisk from reliance on Chinese and Russian Private Military Companies in favor of U.S. security firms.

Program Overview
Exhibitions can offer shared experiences and transformative encounters, leading to new ways of thinking and seeing art and the world. They are designed to be temporary and are often themed—inviting visitors to acknowledge and reflect on the intentions of artists and curators, bringing them into conversation with ideas beyond their own. Loan shows offer expanded access to art and ideas, offering something new to communities of visitors and to histories of art.

The purpose of this NOFO is to support community coalitions that work to
prevent and reduce substance use among youth. This NOFO aligns with the
Drug-Free Communities (DFC)’s Support Program’s two goals:
• Establish and strengthen collaboration among community stakeholders
and organizations to address youth substance use.
• Reduce substance use among youth and, over time, reduce substance
use among adults by:
◦ Addressing the factors in a community that increase the risk of
substance use.
◦ Promoting the factors that minimize the risk of substance use.

The DFC program will fund coalitions that haven’t received DFC funding.

Please note: The DFC Program is funded and administered by the White
House Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). CDC manages the DFC
Program on behalf of ONDCP.

This NOFO will support sites that are implementing OVC-funded anti-human trafficking programs to design and implement ongoing engagement with survivors of human trafficking, as defined by 22 U.S.C. § 7102(11), to improve outcomes for human trafficking victims.  

To inform and improve anti-trafficking programming, applicants should propose approaches that help build OVC anti-trafficking grantees’ capacity to identify and partner with survivors in their local community, state, or region. The awardee will deliver training and technical assistance on effective victim service programming for trafficking survivors. This includes intensive support to recipients of each fiscal year’s new human trafficking victim service awards during their first year of implementation, as well as ongoing support for entities implementing existing awards.  

OVC expects the successful applicant to propose innovative strategies for OVC anti-trafficking grantees to develop these partnerships and offer organizational peer support on survivor engagement approaches. OVC is interested in proposals that maximize the number of grantees supported through this effort.
