Tribal Court Grantees

The goal of the Tribal Court Assistance Program is to develop new tribal courts, improve the operations of existing tribal courts, and provide funding for technical assistance and training of tribal court staff. The objective in reaching this goal is to help tribal governments develop, enhance, and continue the operation of tribal judicial systems, including intertribal court systems.



    GMS On-line Training Tool
    On July 11, 2007, OJP released the Grants Management System (GMS) On-line Training Tool to assist grantees in administering their awards through the GMS. The On-line Training Tool provides step "by" step instructions to complete various functions within GMS, as well as the administrative policies associated with Grant Adjustment Notices, Progress Reporting, and Closeouts.





    All recipients of Office of Justice Programs grants must periodically complete both bi-annual narrative progress reports and quarterly financial status reports (269's). Both reporting forms are available in Adobe Acrobat Reader Format. In order to view the document in it's fill-able form, you MUST have Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0. Please note that Acrobat Reader 5.0 will only allow you to view, fill in, and print the form, not save it.

    Financial Reports
    Reporting Period: Jan. 1 – March 31 Report Due Date: May 15
    Reporting Period: April 1 – June 30 Report Due Date: Aug. 15
    Reporting Period: July 1 – Sept. 30 Report Due Date: Nov. 15

    BJA has Policy Advisors assigned by state to work with grantees. The policy advisors are the point of contact for questions and requests relating to grant administration. Additional information is available in the BJA Guide to Grants.

    Tribal grantees are required to follow comply with the guidelines as set forth in the Financial Guide and OMB Circular No. 87.
