*Individuals and for-profit agencies will be added at the discretion of the project team.

All organizations seeking inclusion in the Tribal Resource Tool must provide specific programming to serve American Indian/Alaska Native victims of crime and abuse.

All organizations that wish to be included in the Tribal Resource Tool must complete the following steps to be considered for the database and remain a provider in good standing.

Complete in full the provider inclusion form.
Provide a direct contact person who will be responsible for maintaining program information. Respond to periodic requests from the project team to provide up-to-date program information, and address any issues/questions that may arise.
Promptly alert the project staff of any program changes, including but not limited to changes regarding: capacity, hours of operation, available services, service area/jurisdiction, language capacity, key personnel and contact information, and any major funding streams that affect your services.
Maintain tribal-specific resources and services to meet the needs of populations who may use this tool.
Submit letters of support or referral, as needed, at the discretion of the project team.

It is the goal of the Tribal Resource Tool to openly share as much data regarding tribal victim services with the field as possible. This allows the field to avoid “siloing” of information critical to providing referrals to victim services.

Each organization’s record may contain both public and private “internal only” contact and referral information.
All information included in the application to the Tribal Resource Tool will be made public unless marked as “internal only”. Any internal contact information will be accessible to project staff only.
All public information provided to the Tribal Resource Tool may be shared with outside agencies, as requested.
Organizations will have the option to share both public and private contact and referral information with the StrongHeart Native Helpline staff.

Project staff reserves the right to remove an organization from the online tool at their discretion and without warning. Examples of grounds for removal include, but are not limited to:

allegations of misconduct,
feedback from those seeking services that a provider is unresponsive,
inability to reach the designated point of contact after multiple attempts, or
failure of the organization to meet the minimum inclusion requirements or responsibilities.

Any organization may likewise request to be removed from the Tribal Resource Tool at any time.

Inclusion in the Tribal Resource Tool is at the sole discretion of the project staff.

This section will describe the process for users to provide feedback on the Tribal Resource Tool. Specific processes will be provided to both included organizations and the end users as the technology is developed.
