The Consolidated Grant Program to Address Children and Youth Experiencing Domestic and Sexual Assault and Engage Men and Boys as Allies (hereinafter referred to as the Consolidated Youth Program) was enacted in the FY 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015 appropriation acts and consolidates four previously authorized and appropriated programs into one comprehensive program. The four programs included in the FY2012, FY2013, FY2014, and FY 2015 consolidations were Services to Advocate for and Respond to Youth (Youth Services), Assist Children and Youth Exposed to Violence (CEV), Engaging Men and Youth in Preventing Domestic Violence (EMY), and Supporting Teens through Education and Prevention (STEP). While OVW develops a new form for this consolidated grant program, certain Consolidated Youth Program grantees will be using the semi-annual progress reporting form previously developed for CEV grantees.
