The OVW Violence Against Women Tribal Special Assistant United States Attorney (Tribal SAUSA) Initiative (Assistance Listing # 16.055) is authorized by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022, Pub.

This initiative supports tribes and United States Attorney's Offices (USAOs) in their investigation and prosecution of Indian country domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, sex trafficking, and stalking cases. Grant funds support salary, fringe benefits, training,...

The goals of the initiative are to fill gaps in jurisdictional coverage; increase communication and coordination with tribal, federal, and state law enforcement agencies; establish consistent relationships between federal prosecutors and the tribal community(ies); and improve the quality of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, sex trafficking, and stalking cases through training and best practices.
