## What the grant funds

This is a notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) for the BJA FY 2025 Invited to Apply - Tribal Justice Training and Technical Assistance Program. This opportunity strengthens Tribal justice systems to prevent and reduce crime while addressing the impact of opioids, stimulants, and other illicit substances on Tribal communities, including reducing overdose fatalities. The program provides technical experts to assist federally recognized Indian Tribes in developing, implementing, and enhancing their justice systems through culturally responsive and individualized assistance. By fostering collaboration with federal, state, and local partners, the program fulfills the federal government's trust responsibility to support Tribal sovereignty and self-governance. The assistance is delivered both virtually and on-site through various mechanisms, including meetings, webinars, and peer-to-peer learning sessions, with the goal of building tribal justice system capacity among grantees to prevent and reduce crime and substance abuse impacts.
