The National Children’s Alliance (NCA), under a cooperative agreement with the United States Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), is now accepting applications for the 2024 National Subgrants Programs.
This is an exciting opportunity to access funds in order to expand Child Advocacy Center (CAC) services to American Indian tribal areas and Alaska Native villages to better meet the needs of child victims and their families living on tribal lands, Alaskan villages and more remote areas not easily accessible to CACs.
The Native Child Advocacy Resource Center (NCARC) is a program of the National Native Children’s Trauma Center.
We provide:
training and technical assistance on the formation and accreditation of Multidisciplinary Teams (MDTs) and CACs which are trauma-informed and culturally grounded;
guidance on building authentic partnerships with Native nations; and
connection with a peer network of CACs/MDTs run by Native nations and those who partner with them.
We are here to offer support. Please reach out to me if you have any questions about the application, process, or how child advocacy centers can improve services to children and families in your community.
Best,
Deanna Chancellor, NCARC Project Director
