Justice Programs Council on Native American Affairs Title: Tribal Justice Advisory Group: Final Report Summary: The Tribal Justice Advisory Group or TJAG is an independent group of tribal leaders and officials made up of one delegate and one alternate from each of the twelve regions of the United States as defined by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, plus one delegate and one alternate from two of the largest American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native American (AI/AN/NA) nonprofit organizations, the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) and the National Indian Health Board (NIHB). After a consultation involving tribal leaders in Phoenix, Arizona, the TJAG was chartered in 2007 by recommendation of the Justice Programs Council on Native American Affairs (JPCNAA), a council of senior-level Office of Justice Programs (OJP) leaders and tribal liaisons from each of the offices of OJP and other DOJ agencies. While the JPCNAA represents OJP’s efforts to coordinate internally its diverse tribal efforts, the TJAG is a medium through which AI/AN/NA external perspectives and tribal input can be brought to bear on those efforts of OJP in order to better serve tribes. During the three years since its establishment, the TJAG was the only body of its kind at the Department of Justice, a truly independent voice for tribes at OJP. However, in October 2009, Attorney General (AG) Eric Holder announced that he would create an AG-level independent advisory group called the Tribal Nations Leadership Council or TNLC. As a result, the TJAG will sunset into the new TNLC. At a final working group meeting held June 16th and 17th of 2010 in Rapid City, SD, the TJAG drafted this final report to make a record of its history, resources, goals, accomplishments, and recommendations, intending it not only to be viewed by OJP and DOJ staff and the public at large, but also specifically to serve as a tool for the newly-created TNLC as it picks up where the TJAG left off.
