ABOUT THE TRIBAL RESOURCES GRANT PROGRAM-TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE (TRGP-TA)

Tribal Resources Grant Program—Technical Assistance (TRGP–TA) funds are used to develop the capacity of tribal law enforcement to implement community policing strategies by providing guidance on promising practices through the development and testing of innovative strategies; building knowledge about effective practices and outcomes; and supporting new, creative approaches to preventing crime and promoting safe tribal communities. FY24 TRGP-TA funds will be used to support technical assistance efforts to assist Alaska Tribes with law enforcement–specific needs, including starting law enforcement agencies, developing policies and procedures, addressing jurisdictional challenges, and other needs unique to Alaska Tribes and tribal law enforcement. Program funds will also support the development of a current “State of Tribal Law Enforcement in Alaska” report with an assessment of tribal law enforcement services and needs, challenges, areas of greatest need, and any unique barriers. The assessment will help shape technical assistance offered under the program along with areas for the COPS Office to focus on in future efforts.

This year's program has one open solicitation: Alaska Tribal Law Enforcement Technical Assistance Project

The COPS Office will provide funding to an organization that demonstrates well-established experience in developing and delivering direct technical assistance to law enforcement personnel and criminal justice professionals in this area, preferably with experience in Alaska.
