Synopsis

CTAS combines many of the Department of Justice's (DOJ's) existing tribal government-specific competitive solicitations into a single solicitation requiring only one application from each tribe or tribal consortium. This approach reduces the number of applications required to access funds and provides federally recognized tribes, tribal consortia, and tribal designees the opportunity to develop a comprehensive approach to public safety and victimization issues. Note: CTAS is not a program but a single solicitation under which tribes can apply to seven separate grant programs from four grant-making offices. DOJ has incorporated feedback from tribes and made the following changes to CTAS for FY 2021: Purpose Area #5 is not included in CTAS this year. The Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) will be funding the Tribal Governments Program in FY 2021; however, it will be a separate solicitation not included in CTAS The Tribal Community and Justice Profile and the Purpose Area Narrative templates have been streamlined and refined across purpose areas to ensure greater clarity and reduce duplication. Applications to CTAS will be completed and submitted through the new Justice Grants system, JustGrants. Information on this new process is outlined in section: How to Apply on page 37. Each tribe or tribal consortium may submit only one CTAS application. An application can include proposals for project funding under one or more purpose areas. As such, multiple awards may be made in response to a single application. In addition to applying for FY 2021 CTAS funding, federally recognized tribes and tribal consortia are encouraged to submit separate applications to any DOJ grant program for which they may be eligible. For information on additional funding sources, visit www.grants.gov and the websites of individual federal agencies. The four DOJ components offering tribal government-specific grants through CTAS are listed below. For more information, visit www.justice.gov/tribal/.
