This is a notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) for the BJA FY 2025 Invited to Apply - Tribal Justice Training and Technical Assistance Program.

The program provides technical experts to assist federally recognized Indian Tribes in developing, implementing, and enhancing their justice systems through culturally responsive and individualized assistance.
