Opportunity Information: Apply for AT ATC 17 007

The Program to End Modern Slavery (PEMS) is a U.S. Department of State funding opportunity run through the Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons. It supports anti-trafficking in persons work aimed at ending modern slavery, and it is offered as a discretionary grant competition. The opportunity is identified as Funding Opportunity Number AT ATC 17 007 and is associated with CFDA number 19.019.

Funding under PEMS is made available through either grants or cooperative agreements, which generally means projects may be supported in a standard grant format or in a structure where the government expects a closer level of engagement and coordination during implementation. The funding activity category is listed as "Other," with the program description clarifying that it is specifically an Anti-Trafficking in Persons initiative focused on ending modern slavery.

Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning the competition is open to any type of applicant entity, with the caveat that any extra conditions or nuances would be spelled out in the full announcement under the section for additional eligibility information. In practical terms, opportunities labeled this way commonly attract applications from nonprofits, universities, international organizations, and other entities capable of carrying out anti-trafficking programming, though the official eligibility language governs who can apply.

The maximum award size (award ceiling) is listed as $25,000,000, indicating that very large, multi-year, or multi-country efforts could be considered depending on the program design and the government’s priorities in the full notice. The announcement anticipates making around 10 awards, suggesting a competitive process where only a limited number of proposals will be funded relative to likely demand.

Key timeline details show the opportunity was created on March 15, 2017, with an original application closing date of May 15, 2017. This places it as a time-bound competitive solicitation from 2017, and any current availability would depend on whether the Department of State reissued the program or released a follow-on solicitation in later years.

In short, PEMS is a Department of State anti-trafficking funding opportunity intended to support substantial initiatives to combat trafficking in persons and modern slavery, open broadly to applicants, administered through grants or cooperative agreements, with individual awards potentially reaching up to $25 million and roughly ten total awards expected under the announced competition.
