demands meaningful action.

Understanding the circumstances surrounding the tragedy of a child fatality through improved data collection, reporting, and analysis of all child fatalities is essential for prevention.

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to establish, by cooperative agreement, the National Center on Child Maltreatment Fatality Data Practices (the National Center) to improve data collection and reporting about child maltreatment fatalities.

Effective cross-agency coordination and understanding of child maltreatment fatality data can help states collect comprehensive data.

States, jurisdictions, and their partners, including tribes, can use that information to develop cross-agency prevention, intervention, and system reform efforts.The National Center will make and carry out a plan to provide culturally responsive T/TA to states, jurisdictions, and their partners, including tribes.

This will enable these groups to better execute the goals of this funding and measure the effectiveness of implemented efforts.

The National Center will focus on the following objectives:
Building knowledge and capacity.Increasing opportunities for cross-agency cooperation and coordination.Establishing a national resource for information-sharing, learning, and dissemination.Supporting data practice and reporting strategies.Evaluating training and technical assistance activities.
