The Redwood Valley Little River Band of Pomo Indians received a $219,402 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Justice's Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) under the VOCA Tribal Victim Services Set-Aside Program (CFDA 16.841). The grant, awarded on October 1, 2024, will enable the Tribe to implement services for victims of crime that meet community-identified needs and reflect tribal values and traditions. This aligns with the Congressional intent for the VOCA Tribal Victim Services Set-Aside, which was created in 2018 to improve victim services in tribal communities. The grant will fund a range of victim services, including victim advocacy, shelter, counseling, and legal assistance, tailored to the specific requirements of the Redwood Valley Tribal community. The project will be completed by September 30, 2029.
