Grant Overview
Operationalizing Community Development & Services to Combat CSAM and Online Child Sexual Exploitation ## Community Development & Services (CDS) organizations play a vital role in supporting law enforcement, prosecutors, and other professionals in combating Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) and online child sexual exploitation. To effectively utilize the Grant to Technological Investigative Capacity, CDS organizations must understand the operational requirements and challenges associated with enhancing technological investigative capacity. The grant, funded by the Banking Institution, aims to increase the technological investigative capacity and associated training of law enforcement, prosecutors, and other professionals nationwide. With a focus on operations, CDS organizations must navigate the complexities of delivering training and technical assistance to combat CSAM and online child sexual exploitation. One concrete regulation that applies to this sector is the requirement to comply with the National Child Search Safety Act, which mandates reporting of CSAM. CDS organizations must ensure that their operations are aligned with this regulation. A verifiable delivery challenge unique to this sector is the need for specialized technical expertise to effectively utilize advanced investigative tools and technologies. To overcome this challenge, CDS organizations may need to partner with technology providers or develop in-house capacity. The workflow for CDS organizations will involve coordinating with law enforcement, prosecutors, and other stakeholders to identify training needs and deliver technical assistance. Staffing requirements will include personnel with expertise in technology and investigative techniques, as well as project management and coordination skills. Resource requirements will include access to advanced investigative tools and technologies, as well as funding for training and technical assistance. Eligibility barriers for CDS organizations may include lack of experience in delivering training and technical assistance, or limited capacity to coordinate with law enforcement and other stakeholders. Compliance traps may include failure to comply with relevant regulations, such as the National Child Search Safety Act. CDS organizations must also be aware of what is not funded under the grant, including costs associated with direct law enforcement activities. Required outcomes for CDS organizations will include improved technological investigative capacity and increased number of professionals trained to combat CSAM and online child sexual exploitation. KPIs will include metrics such as number of training sessions delivered, number of professionals trained, and feedback from stakeholders. Reporting requirements will include regular progress reports and evaluation of project outcomes. In Idaho and Massachusetts, CDS organizations have successfully utilized similar grants to enhance their capacity to combat CSAM and online child sexual exploitation. These organizations have leveraged their expertise in Conflict Resolution and Law, Justice, Juvenile Justice & Legal Services to deliver effective training and technical assistance. When applying for the Grant to Technological Investigative Capacity, CDS organizations should be aware of the community development block grant (CDBG) program and other funding opportunities that may be available to support their work. A partnership development grant may be used to support collaboration between CDS organizations and other stakeholders.
