The Office of Justice Programs (OJP) Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) invites you to discuss the administration of the Fiscal Year 2018 tribal set-aside to enhance services for tribal victim services. The Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2018, (P.L. 115-141) for the Department of Justice created a 3% set-aside in the Federal Crime Victims Fund (CVF) receipts allocated to OVC. OVC is responsible for administering grant award programs that are supported by the CVF, including the FY 2018 tribal set-aside. A paper providing relevant background information and questions for you to consider will be circulated separately.

We invite you to participate in a series of telephone calls that will be held June 12 and June 14, 2018.

Tribal leaders and representatives are welcome to call in to any or all of the calls. You will be asked to provide your name and Tribal affiliation when you register for a session. The times have been set below for the convenience of the callers.

Those without internet access or unable to pre-register may dial in by calling: 1-866-777-2509 (toll free).

In addition to the telephone calls, we will accept written comments from tribes until 5:00 p.m. e.t. on June 29, 2018. Written comments may be submitted by email at: ovctribalsetaside@ojp.usdoj.gov. Tribes may also submit comments by first-class mail to:
