Santo domingo pueblo will use this FY 2024 tvssa award to implement services for victims of crime that meet needs identified by the community and reflect tribal community values and traditions

The Santo Domingo Pueblo was awarded a $229,973 Project Grant under the FY 2024 Tribal Victim Services Set-Aside (TVSSA) Program (CFDA 16.841), administered by the U.S. Department of Justice Office for Victims of Crime (OVC). The grant funding will enable the tribe to implement comprehensive victim services that address needs identified by the community and align with tribal values and traditions. This aligns with the Congressional intent for the TVSSA program, which was created in 2018 to improve victim services in tribal communities. The grant period runs from January 1, 2025 to December 30, 2025.

This aligns with the congressional intent for the set-aside from the CVF, which was created in 2018 to improve services for victims of crime in tribal communities. OVC administers the tvssa via a formula. Tvssa funds may be used for any purpose directly related to serving victims of crime.
