Overview
Congress annually authorizes set-aside funds from the Crime Victims Fund for a Tribal Victim Services Set-Aside (TVSSA) program which provide support to Tribal communities to enhance services for victims of crime, consistent with the requirements of the Victims of Crime Act. OVC is charged by Congress with administering the Crime Victims Fund.
OVC’s TVSSA formula grant program supports American Indian and Alaska Native communities as they walk in healing with survivors and victims of crime.
