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.
