COPS-TRIBAL-RESOURCES-GRANT-PROGRAM-TECHNICAL-ASSISTANCE-2020

Tribal Resources Grant Program – Technical Assistance (TRGP-TA) program funds are used to provide funding to support tribal law enforcement agencies through training and technical assistance efforts around community policing topics. The COPS Office, a federal provider of innovative, customer-focused resources that address the continuing and emerging needs of those engaged in enhancing public safety through community policing, has designed the TRGP-TA solicitation to address tribal law enforcement training and technical assistance efforts. The 2020 TRGP-TA program has been established to fund specific projects related to the following topic areas: (1) Cold Cases and Missing or Murdered Indigenous Persons; and (2) Developing an Alaskan Law Enforcement Recruitment Strategy. Detailed descriptions of each of these topics are available in the application guide. There is up to $800,000 in TRGP-TA funds available. All awards are subject to the availability of appropriated funds and any modifications or additional requirements that may be imposed by law. Funding is limited, and it is expected that this solicitation will be very competitive. Each award or cooperative agreement is two years (24 months) in length. There is no local match. Each award will be in the form of a cooperative agreement, the funding instrument used for substantial federal involvement.
