HCA FY2020 Tribal Victim Services Set-Aside Formula Program

DOJ and OVC have long recognized the critical need to support American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) victims of crime. Over time, OVC has conducted a number of tribal consultations and listening sessions to gather input from our AI/AN partners regarding the Crime Victims Fund tribal victim services set-aside. Based on the information gathered, OVC will allocate the FY 2020 funding by an interim discretionary administrative formula. The formula being used was created with significant input from tribal leaders and from the information gathered from the consultations and listening sessions. Under this award, Hydaburg Cooperative Association will: 1) Provide safe transportation of program clients to and from the shelter, and to necessary meetings and appointments; 2) Maintain Shelter facility and grounds to extend the useful life of buildings; 3) Address facility and program limitations in the meeting all needs of clients; and 4) Ensure that Victim Services program staffing needs are met through 2024.
