| Description: | The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) is interested in awarding up to two cooperative agreements for national projects to provide technical assistance to organizations and institutions that serve persons who have been tortured. It is expected that at least one of the projects will focus on those organizations and institutions funded to provide direct services to torture survivors under a separate ORR announcement (HHS-2009-ACF-ORR-ZT-0050). The purpose of the project(s) is to provide training and technical assistance to increase the capacity of programs to provide effective services to torture survivors and to measure their results.
