[Tribal-drug-courts] Webinar TOMORROW - Over $100M Available for Tribal Victim Services Programs - Application Deadline August 6 at 9:00 p.m. EDT

Mon Jul 9 18:27:14 CDT 2018

While not directly applicable to Healing to Wellness Courts – this is an incredible opportunity for tribes, with a relatively reasonable application process:

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has released a grant solicitation<https://tlpi.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2098ca541b563fa96b8822b3f&id=d205010dda&e=48a90e1d41> to distribute at least $110 million to tribal governments for crime victim services. This is a new program and the funding can be used for a wide range of purposes to address the physical, mental, emotional, and financial trauma of crime victims.  The application process for the funding has been divided into two phases, and the deadline for the streamlined Phase 1 process is August 6th, 2018 at 9pm Eastern. Only tribes that meet this deadline will be able to access funding through this new program.

National Congress of the American Indian (NCAI) and the Tribal Law and Policy Institute (TLPI) will be holding a webinar to discuss the solicitation on July 10th, 2018 at 11am Pacific/12pm Mountain/1pm Central/2pm Eastern.

You can register for the webinar at this link<https://tlpi.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2098ca541b563fa96b8822b3f&id=5bf0b61790&e=48a90e1d41>.

This new grant program was created because Congress directed $133 million to tribal governments from the Crime Victims Fund (CVF) earlier this year. This is the first time tribal governments have received funding from the CVF (see NCAI Resolution ANC-14-048<https://tlpi.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2098ca541b563fa96b8822b3f&id=10b170a03d&e=48a90e1d41>). NCAI continues to advocate with Congress to create a permanent tribal set-aside from the CVF. The pending appropriations bills for FY 19 again include this funding, with $130 million included for tribes in the pending House bill and $220 million in the pending Senate bill.
