The Office for Victims of Crime of the U.S. Department of Justice has funded the National Center for Victims of Crime, National Congress of American Indians, Tribal Law and Policy Institute, and StrongHearts Native Helpline to create a web-based resource mapping tool that:
- provides a listing of all services available for AI/AN survivors of crime and abuse and
- identifies gaps in victim services so those can be addressed
The project team has gathered input from stakeholders across Indian Country and urban Indian communities about the design and content of the tool. Over 100 stakeholders have been engaged through web-meetings, in-person meetings, and focus groups.
The tool includes services for:
- all ages of AI/AN survivors and victims
- all forms of victimization
- all locations (on or off reservations, in areas that are remote, rural, urban, or suburban)
- all needs of victims, including justice, safety, healing, and support
Help us continue to engage others in this important project by sharing Tribal Resource Tool information widely and asking the appropriate providers to fill out our Inclusion Form on the home page.
