About this opportunity
The Tribal Sexual Assault Services Program (TSASP), administered by the Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women, seeks to support comprehensive sexual assault services for adult, youth, and child victims within Indian tribal lands and Alaska Native villages. Eligible applicants include federally recognized tribal governments, tribal organizations, and nonprofit tribal organizations that can provide intervention, advocacy, accompaniment, support services, and related assistance for sexual assault victims. The program aims to establish, maintain, and expand sexual assault programs with culturally sensitive healing practices tailored to Native American and Alaska Native communities. Evaluation criteria will be specified in the program's notice of funding opportunity (NOFO), with applicants required to submit proposals through Grants.gov and the Department of Justice's JustGrants System. The application deadline for this fiscal year 2025 opportunity is September 23, 2025, with applicants expected to be notified by the end of the fiscal year.
Recent grant awards for similar programs have typically ranged from $300,000 to $675,000, with project periods spanning three to five years. The place of performance will be within Indian tribal lands and Alaska Native villages, with potential service locations across states including Washington, Oklahoma, Wisconsin, New Mexico, and California. Successful grantees must retain financial records and supporting documents for three years after submitting the final expenditure report, with provisions for extended record retention if any litigation or audit is pending. Funds will be released on an as-needed basis to the grantee, and recipients must comply with the current version of the DOJ Financial Grants Management Guide. Upon approval, the Authorized Representative must accept the award online through the designated system.
