The Department awards grants to improve public safety, serve victims of crime, combat violence against women and support youth programs in American Indian and Alaska Native communities. This workshop is designed to provide previous and new CTAS applicants with tools and guidance that may assist with the tribe’s efforts to access grant funding and other resources to improve their justice systems. Workshop sessions will be led by DOJ personnel and experienced technical assistance providers and will focus on topics such as: * Reviewing a solicitation * Formatting a grant narrative * Preparing an application checklist and building a writing team * Addressing application components * Creating a budget * Writing goals, objectives, and deliverables/tasks * Identifying community strengths and resource mapping

Upon completion of this workshop, attendees will be able to create a project design of goals, objectives, and tasks to achieve the desired outcome of their proposal.

This workshop is designed for previous and new Coordinated Tribal Assistance Solicitation applicants.
