Additional Information on Eligibility:
All Federally Recognized Tribes with established police departments are eligible to apply. Federally Recognized Tribes may also apply as a consortium with a written partnership agreement that names a lead agency and describes how requested resources will serve the consortium’s population. In addition, tribes that are currently served by Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) law enforcement may request funding under this grant program to supplement their existing police services. Tribes whose law enforcement services are exclusively provided by local policing agencies through a contract agreement are not eligible under the COPS TRGP program.

Agency Name

Department of Justice, Headquarters, Office of Community Oriented Policing Services

Description

This program is designed to meet the most serious needs of law enforcement in Indian communities through a comprehensive grant program that will offer a variety of funding options including: new, additional police officer positions; basic and/or specialized training for sworn law enforcement officers; training in community policing, grants management and computer training; uniforms and basic issue equipment; department-wide technology; and police vehicles. This program, which complements the COPS Office’s efforts to fund and support innovative community policing, will enhance law enforcement infrastructures and community policing efforts in tribal communities which have limited resources and are affected by high rates of crime and violence.
Applications should reflect the department’s most serious law enforcement needs and must link these needs to the implementation or enhancement of community policing. Approximately $20 million in funding will be available under the Tribal Resources Grant Program. The grant will cover a maximum federal share of 75% of total project costs. A local match requirement of at least 25% of the total project cost is included in this program. A waiver of the local match requirement may be requested but will be granted only on the basis of documented demonstrated fiscal hardship. Requests for waivers must be submitted with the application.
Tribes whose law enforcement services are exclusively provided by local policing agencies through contract arrangements are not eligible under this COPS program.
Receiving an award under the Tribal Resources Grant Program will not preclude grantees from future consideration under other COPS grant programs for which they are eligible.

“The wolf, now an endangered species, has become a symbol of all that is right and in harmony with nature. It is modern man who in his ignorance has been wrong and out of step with nature. Not the wolf.”

Michael W. Fox, The Wolf (1989 )

"When it comes time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home." Chief Aupumut, Mohican. 1725

"There is no death, only a change of worlds." Duwamish

"Didn't the farmers around Gorkiy tell you that it is the wolf you do not see that you must fear? -Marko Alexandrovich Ramius"

"If you talk to the animals, they will know you and you will know each other... If you do not talk to them you will not know them... What you do not know you fear. What one fears they DESTROY... "

To look into the eyes of a wolf is to see into your own soul-hope you like what you see. -Aldo Leopold

"...for the strength of the Pack is the Wolf and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack..." Rudyard Kipling

"If you don't want the truth, dont ask.. go make up your own like everyone else" Eddie Wilson

"A lot of things will catch your eye, but only a few will catch you heart...pursue them, for they may not be around to pursue very long"

"Work like you don't need the money, Love like you've never been hurt, Dance like you do when nobody's watching."

"there are 3 kinds of men. Those who listen, those who learn by observation... and those that just have to pee on the electric fence and find out themselves. "

"What we do in this life, will echo in eternity" - General Maximus Decimus Meridus
