Report on the OVC Fiscal Year 2022 Crime Victims Fund Tribal Set-Aside Formula Program

This report provides information about the FY 2022 Crime Victims Fund Tribal Set-Aside Program. The Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Biden-Harris Administration have a longstanding commitment to improve services for victims of crime in American Indian and Alaska Native communities. In November 2022, the Department consulted with Tribal leaders about “Tribal Set-Aside” funding administered by the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) from the Crime Victims Fund (CVF). The Department presents this paper to help educate Consultation participants about the history of OVC’s Tribal Set-Aside, and inform them about how the funds were used in Fiscal Year (FY) 2022. The report also covers the history of the OVC Tribal Set-Aside Program.
