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 native village of goodnews BAY is a federally recognized tribe located in southwest alaska in the village of goodnews BAY. Qaunqelluki kinguliaput "protecting our generations" program, works to address violence against american indian/alaska native women by providing direct services and resources to those affected by domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, SEX trafficking, and stalking.
