About this opportunity
The OVW Fiscal Year 2025 Special Tribal Criminal Jurisdiction (STCJ) Grant Program, administered by the Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women, supports tribal governments in preparing to exercise or exercising STCJ over non-Indians who commit specific "covered" crimes within the tribe's jurisdictional boundaries. These covered crimes include assault of tribal justice personnel, child violence, dating violence, domestic violence, obstruction of justice, sexual violence, sex trafficking, stalking, and violation of a protection order. The grant program aims to ensure victim safety, hold offenders accountable, and enhance tribal sovereignty by enabling tribes to address violence within their jurisdictional areas.
The federal grant awards under this program typically range from $300,000 to $1,500,000, with performance periods spanning 24 to 60 months. Frequently awarded entities include federally recognized tribal governments across the United States. The place of performance is required to be within the applicant tribe's jurisdictional boundaries.
