About Illinois Coalition Against Domestic Violence
Illinois Coalition Against Domestic Violence functions as the statewide administrator of federal VOCA and VAWA funding in Illinois, turning public dollars into direct services for survivors of domestic violence and their children. The coalition’s grantmaking is built around victim services, with funding used for shelter, advocacy, counseling, medical advocacy, and legal support. Its recent awards show a large-scale distribution model rather than a single-site or project-only approach: Family Rescue in Chicago received $861,070 in 2024, while Sojourn Shelter & Services Inc. in Springfield received $787,605 that same year. Those grants sit within a broader portfolio of statewide subawards that support domestic violence service providers across Illinois. The coalition also administers competitive federal opportunities, including VOCA Chicago Co-Location Project funding and FY27 VOCA and VAWA STOP grants, indicating an ongoing role as both funder and pass-through administrator. Recent recipients include agencies in Chicago, Champaign, Peoria, Joliet, and Rockford, showing a service network that reaches urban, suburban, and downstate communities through domestic violence programs.
What Illinois Coalition Against Domestic Violence Funds
Domestic violence victim services are the core of the coalition’s grantmaking. In 2024, it awarded $657,690 to The Center for Prevention of Abuse in Peoria for victim services, a grant category that aligns with direct support for survivors. Shelter and housing also appear in the active funding programs, including VOCA and VAWA administration for emergency shelter and housing access across Illinois. Legal advocacy is another consistent thread: the coalition’s administered funds support orders of protection and criminal prosecution support, and active programs also reference legal advocacy for victims. The portfolio extends to medical advocacy and counseling and therapy, showing that the funding is structured around both immediate crisis response and ongoing survivor support. Some programs also specify services for Latinx communities and rural areas, suggesting that the coalition uses federal grant streams to reach different service settings within Illinois.
How Illinois Coalition Against Domestic Violence Gives
Typical grant size is $136,371 at the 25th percentile, $226,350 at the median, and $360,028 at the 75th percentile. The recent grants list shows repeated awards to the same recipient across years: Family Rescue appears in both 2024 and 2025, which points to recurring support rather than one-time awards. The foundation is a coalition rather than a private family foundation, and it operates as an administrator of federal VOCA and VAWA funds, including approximately $10 million annually through one program stream. Unsolicited applications are accepted in some active competitive programs, including FY27 VOCA Chicago Co-Location Project, FY27 VOCA, and FY27 VAWA STOP, while other administered funds are not open to unsolicited applications.
