Grant Description

OJJDP is seeking a Tribal Youth Program training and technical assistance provider to provide culturally, trauma-informed, and developmentally appropriate training; support, resources; information; and other related technical assistance to all OJJDP tribal program grantees and federally recognized tribes across the nation. When allocating resources, OJJDP-funded tribal program grantees would receive priority. The successful applicant will develop culturally specific training and technical assistance for tribes seeking to build capacity to develop, expand, improve and/or maintain their juvenile justice systems. Priority areas include juvenile healing-to-wellness courts, tribal youth-specific prevention, intervention, and treatment programming and tribal-state collaborations to meet the needs of American Indian/Alaska Native children exposed to violence. The successful applicant will collaborate closely with OJJDPмs other training and technical assistance efforts and providers. This program is authorized pursuant to paragraph (3)(A) under the Juvenile Justice Programs heading in the Department of Justice Appropriations Act, 2015, Pub.L. No.113235: 128 Stat. 2130, 2195.
