The grants to indian tribal governments program assists tribal governments, and authorized designees of tribal governments, to 1) decrease the incidence of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, SEX trafficking, and stalking in tribal communities; 2) strengthen the capacity of tribes to exercise their sovereign authority to respond to these violent crimes; and 3) ensure that perpetrators of these violent crimes are held accountable for their criminal behavior. The curyung tribal council is a federally recognized tribe located southwest of anchorage in dillingham, alaska. With this funding, the curyung tribe will increase tribal capacity to respond to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, SEX trafficking, and staking by: 1) creating community education and prevention campaigns; and 2) enhancing government strategies to curtail violent crimes against women through capacity building as a new TGP funded program. The curyung tribal council has partnered with safe and fear free environment (safe), a local non-profit, to plan this project. The timing for performance of this new award is 36 months.
