National Resource Center for Tribes: The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement is to establish by cooperative agreement a National Resource Center for Tribes (NRCT). NRCT will serve as a member of the Children's Bureau's (CB) Child Welfare Training and Technical Assistance Network (T/TA Network) which is designed to improve child welfare systems and to support States and Tribes in achieving sustainable, systemic change that results in greater safety, permanency, and well-being for children, youth, and families. NRCT will become the Network's focal point for coordinated and culturally competent training and technical assistance to Tribes. The center is intended to successfully engage Tribes, to enhance their access to and utilization of the T/TA Network, to broker T/TA, to assist in the provision of T/TA as needed, to facilitate peer-to-peer consultation between Tribes regarding child welfare issues, and to increase cultural competence and sensitivity to Tribal voices in the T/TA Network and in State child welfare systems.
