Program Director: Renee Baughman
Program Coordinator: Amanda Barron

The Goal:
The Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma will
impact crime and delinquency among tribal youth via
a comprehensive approach designed to mobilize community
resources and to apply culturally appropriate interventions
that will result in improving the quality of the life
for Native American Families.
The Mission:
To define the extent of the problem,
organize resources, enhance current services, and,
thus, reduce and prevent crime for Native Indian youth,
their families and citizens who reside within the tribal
service area. The target population will be Native
youth of all tribes (ages 12-18) residing within the
Choctaw Nation.
The C.R.I.M.E.S Project will focus on the development
and dissemination of four products during the three
year period of funding:
1. Community Needs Assessment
2. Community Resource Guide
3. Database & web-site on crime prevention among Native
youth
4. C.R.I.M.E.S Project model
