OVW Fiscal Year 2024 Special Tribal Criminal Jurisdiction (STCJ) Grant Program
The OVW Special Tribal Criminal Jurisdiction Grant Program (Tribal Jurisdiction Program) (Assistance Listing # 1 6. 025) supports tribes in their efforts to exercise special Tribal criminal jurisdiction (STCJ) over non-Indians who commit "covered crimes" within the Tribe's jurisdictional
boundaries and provides technical assistance for planning and implementing changes in their criminal justice systems necessary to exercise the jurisdiction.
"Covered crimes" are:
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 program supports tribes in preparing to exercise or exercising the jurisdiction to ensure that victims find safety and justice and that non-Indians who commit covered crimes within their communities are held accountable.
