State, Fort Peck Tribes Plan Grant Writing Workshop

The Montana Board of Crime Control and the Fort Peck Assiniboine and Sioux Tribes will hold a grant writing workshop at Fort Peck Community College June 24-25.



Classes are limited to 30 people per class, with preference given to Montana tribes and other American Indian agencies and organizations. You are invited to bring grants in progress for input and assistance.
       



The programs agenda is as follows:


• Enhance public safety by increasing the number of successful tribally specific and justice related grants awarded to tribes

• Enhance capacity within tribal communities to compete for all types of grants.

• Enhance capacity within tribal communities to manage grants and sustain programs.


The Montana Board of Crime Control is the designated
          state agency that administers millions of grant dollars dedicated
          to preventing and addressing crime statewide. MBCC is headed by an eighteen
          member board appointed by Governor Schweitzer. Board members represent
          law enforcement, criminal justice system stakeholders, and citizens,
          including the first Montanans, our state's Native Americans. Board members
          provide critical citizen leadership, oversight and accountability of
          systems charged with promoting justice and public safety.
