Agency Name: SMART
Description: The SORNA Tribal Training and Technical Assistance Grant Program was developed to provide support and guidance to tribes that opted to be a sex offender registration jurisdiction and are working towards substantially implementing the components of the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act. In summary, SORNA requires: (1) participating federally recognized Indian tribes to maintain a sex offender registry; and (2) sex offenders to register and maintain a current registration in each jurisdiction where the offender resides, is an employee, or is a student. SORNA also sets forth requirements for sex offender registries, to include: specified required information, duration of registration, and in-person verification of sex offender identity as well as participation in the Dru Sjodin National Sex Offender Public Website. This grant is designed to support tribal jurisdictions in meeting these requirements and providing guidance as to how to write grants to support substantial implementation projects and activities. For more specific information about compliance with SORNA and access to the final National Guidelines on Sex Offender Registration and Notification and the Supplemental Guidelines on Sex Offender Registration and Notification, or for more information and resources on the Adam Walsh Act, please visit http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/smart.The SMART Office is interested in proposals that demonstrate working knowledge of SORNA and the Adam Walsh Act, and are familiar with the specific challenges and obstacles Indian tribes face when trying to implement the SORNA�s components. It is expected that training and technical assistance will focus on:
Assisting tribal jurisdictions to develop or enhance jurisdiction-wide SORNA sex offender registration programs or functions.
Brainstorming with and assisting tribal jurisdictions with the development of program plans and timelines to improve systems for necessary collections of data under SORNA infrastructure, such as systems for the collection, storage, submission or analysis of sex offender biometric data (finger and palm prints) and DNA.
Facilitating discussions and assisting tribal jurisdictions to develop or enhance law enforcement and other criminal justice agency information sharing at the jurisdiction level, as well as between jurisdiction-level agencies and local-level agencies, as it relates to SORNA sex offender registration and notification compliance and accountability.
Assisting tribal jurisdictions to implement records management and conversion projects. Providing guidance about how to initiate and germinate support for coordinated interagency efforts to comply with SORNA.
Assisting tribal jurisdictions to develop and implement training for law enforcement and other criminal justice agency personnel responsible for sex offender registration and compliance related to SORNA implementation.
Providing guidance and support to participating tribal jurisdictions for other SORNA related activities, including grant writing to support implementation efforts.

The successful applicant will work with the SMART Office to identify and assist tribes who will require technical assistance to substantially implement SORNA. The applicant will plan and deliver training and technical assistance to the greatest number of SORNA tribal jurisdictions possible, and will include an outreach plan to tribes that have not historically been engaged with these efforts. The successful application will be required to measure the effect of the technical assistance as it relates to improving grantees� ability to substantially implement the components of SORNA and ability to obtain funding for these efforts.
