• To implement enhanced authorities and provisions under the Tribal Law and Order Act (TLOA) and the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013 and to support the development of joint jurisdiction courts with state and local courts.
• To prevent future crime by addressing the risks and needs of young adults (ages 18–25) who are involved with or at risk of involvement with the justice system.
• To ensure safety through coordinated support for the re-entry of returning tribal members from federal or state prison sentences.
• To develop, enhance, and continue programs to improve the safety and effectiveness of tribal law enforcement officers such as planning for and developing their own law enforcement agency, law enforcement support as part of a larger strategy, or court security issues such adding an officer at the courthouse to improve court security.
