TLPI also discussed how to request TTA, the TTA TLPI process (which consists of TA Coach assignments, the development of a TA workplan, and a final TA report. in collaboration with grantees and tribal TTA partners.) TLPI then had a discussion with grantees to identify their TTA goals and priorities. Top Priorities/TTA/Needs/etc.
Their primary focus right now is hiring probation officer/Court Coordinator. They are wanting to hire a sworn police officer for drug coordination training They have issue with drugs on reservation so looking to establish some sort of alternative sentencing through probation. They have a lot of people going in and out of jail with no solution. They are looking for drug, alcohol, workforce, mental health programs. All would be through probation.
TLPI shared that TJI has a lot of resource on alternative sentencing and will be able to provide these and support the goals they have. Part of the funding they have is also for equipment for the position they are hiring as well as training. They have a training for the officer already as well.
