      16.025 -- Special Domestic Violence Criminal Jurisdiction Implementation

    Description

    The Special Tribal Criminal Jurisdiction (STCJ) Grant Program supports Tribal governments in preparing to exercise or exercising STCJ over non-Indians who commit “covered” crimes within the Tribe’s jurisdictional boundaries. “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. More information on the scope and requirements of STCJ, including the pilot program for under which the Attorney General may designate Alaska Tribes to exercise STCJ over non-Indians who commit covered crimes in their Villages, is available on the DOJ website at https://www.justice.gov/tribal/2013-and-2022-reauthorizations-violence-against-women-act-vawa. In prior years, OVW issued a separate NOFO for Alaska Tribes, but for FY 2025, Alaska Tribes interested in preparing to exercise STCJ may apply under this NOFO.
