Indian Highway Safety Tribal Grants (Formerly IHSP Grant Writing Training)
The Highway Safety Act of 1966, U.S.C. Title 23, Section 402, provides U.S. Department of Transportation funding to assist Indian tribes in implementing traffic safety projects. These Projects are designed to reduce the high number of traffic crashes and their resulting fatalities, injuries and property damage within Indian communities.
Indian Highway Safety grants are financial assistance grants for federally recognized tribes. If awarded, funds are to be used to enhance the tribe’s current law enforcement in traffic safety and enforcement efforts and/or child safety seat programs (car seat distributions). All Indian Highway Safety grant opportunities are reimbursable, and performance based.
