Request Training & Technical Assistance
TLPI is committed to connecting Native nations with the most innovative and promising practices for their systems of care, justice, and governance.
The Tribal Law and Policy Institute (TLPI) is available for training, technical assistance (TTA), and resource requests all year long. Under several funded projects, TLPI provides T/TA for no cost. However, for a request that does not fall within those projects, TLPI can provide T/TA at a low cost. TLPI strives to provide customized, culturally responsive, and accessible TTA to meet your unique needs. TLPI understands that Tribal access to critical funding sources may be limited despite the need for high-quality subject matter expertise. TLPI will do its best to work with you to meet the needs of your request as TLPI strives to provide TTA to Tribes at low-to-no cost.

Really awesome, a lot of great information and met my goals today. The presenters are very well informed and knowledgeable on topic presented.
The presenters had a lot of knowledge, work experience, and expertise that was applied to the training. Very much appreciated the training. Thank you.
I want to commend all of you for your dedication, commitment and persistence in addressing the safety and protection needs of victims of sex trafficking in Indian Country. This is a difficult area to resolve and many people get burned out from this type of work. I'm glad you are here and providing guidance and direction for those of us who are just learning how problematic this issue is within and near Native Nations. I appreciate everything that was shared and the very thorough resources that you have compiled for our use in creating more awareness and healthy advocacy on this topic.Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your time, talents, and knowledge. These presenters were just phenomenal at presenting this important and sensitive information in a respectful way. Wopila Tanka.
