Indigenous violence survivors see fewer services after federal cuts
A report by the Urban Indian Health Institute found that federal funding cuts under the Trump administration led to over 1,000 unmet requests for services for American Indian and Alaska Native violence survivors, including 690 safe housing-related requests. The cuts, affecting departments like Justice and Health and Human Services, caused reductions in services such as counseling and legal assistance, with Rep. Adelita Grijalva discussing the issue in a congressional hearing.
