From the Missoulian: "Some $248 million is now available for tribes to meet their criminal justice needs, including money for programs addressing domestic and sexual violence, the Department of Justice announced this week."
The Department of Justice has posted information about Recovery Act funds for tribal, state, and local law enforcement efforts on its Tribal Justice and Safety in Indian Country website. The press release on the main page and a fact sheet summarize the impact on Indian Country. The Department of Justice Recovery Act page includes additional information on where Recovery Act money is being spent.
