FY25 U.S. Department of Justice Coordinated Tribal Assistance Solicitation

The Coordinated Tribal Assistance Solicitation (CTAS) responds to tribal leaders’ requests to improve and simplify the DOJ grant-making process. Since fiscal year (FY) 2010, DOJ has combined existing tribal government-specific competitive funding opportunities into one and required only one application from each tribe or tribal consortium under CTAS. This approach provides federally recognized tribes and tribal consortia the opportunity to develop a comprehensive approach to public safety and victimization issues. The FY 2025 CTAS refers to DOJ’s tribal government-specific competitive grant programs as purpose areas (PA). Applicants may select the PA(s) that best address their tribe’s concerns about public safety; criminal and juvenile justice; substance use-related crime and access to treatment and recovery support, including Tribal healing to wellness courts; and the needs of victims and survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking. The DOJ components offering tribal government grant resources through the PAs are listed below. Applicants should refer to the Purpose Area Specific information on focus areas/funding priorities and allowable and unallowable costs that may inform the development of their project design.
