Alaska Intertribal Technical Assistance Working Group

The Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2022 (VAWA 2022) introduced the Alaska Pilot Program, which will enable Alaska Tribes to criminally prosecute non-Indians for specific crimes committed in their Villages. The primary purpose of the Alaska Intertribal Technical Assistance Working Group (AK ITWG) is to bring together Alaska Tribes to collectively work toward enhancing safety and justice in Tribal communities with a particular emphasis on considering and preparing for the exercise of Special Tribal Criminal Jurisdiction (STCJ).

Register for our Oct. 21-22 Alaska ITWG meeting here. This meeting will be held in Anchorage at Southcentral Foundation’s Ahklun Building, 2501 Diplomacy Drive.
