PCCD official press release and live eGrants identify current December 10 deadline, eligible applicant classes, range of violence prevention projects, distinct separate Statewide BOOST competition, and approximately $60m total shared program pool. Current detailed funding announcement and updated October 27 Q&A hosted as nonstandard eGrants downloads were not independently readable, so per-applicant cap, matching requirements, detailed allowable costs, and exact submission time not established.

Opportunity Overview
The Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency (PCCD) is accepting initial applications for the FY2026-27 Violence Intervention and Prevention (VIP) and Building Opportunities Through Out-of-School Time (BOOST) competitive funding announcement. Projects may address community violence prevention and intervention, youth mentoring and out-of-school-time programs, hospital-based violence intervention, victim support, community reentry, trauma-informed care, and related eligible approaches in Pennsylvania.
Applicant Eligibility
PCCD identifies eligible applicant classes including municipalities, counties, district attorney offices, institutions of higher education, school districts, career and technical centers, community-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, and libraries. Particular VIP or BOOST tracks may have narrower conditions, which applicants must verify in the controlling announcement.
Funding
Approximately $60,000,000 is available collectively under the FY2026-27 VIP and BOOST announcements. This is an overall funding pool shared across separate competitions, not a grant amount promised to an individual applicant. A binding individual minimum or maximum and any matching requirement have not yet been independently verified from the current detailed solicitation.
Application
Initial applications are due December 10, 2026, through the official PCCD eGrants system. The agency public summary does not specify an exact submission time or time zone. The required application package, eligibility conditions, allowed costs, stage requirements, and the October 27 updated questions and answers must be reviewed before an applicant submits.
