The Arizona Attorney General’s Office has started a $6 million grant program for tribal communities impacted by recent fraud involving sober living homes.

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes on Tuesday announced the program, which is being funded through the Anti-Racketeering Revolving Fund.

“Every community deserves care they can trust,” Mayes said in a press release. “This funding will help Tribal Nations provide much-needed support for individuals impacted by the fraudulent sober living home scandal. And my office will continue to pursue accountability for those responsible for sober living home fraud.

The Sober Living Home Support Program offers grants of up to $500,000 for Tribal Nations to provide compensation, remediation and supportive housing for those affected. This funding is designed to alleviate economic loss and support recovery.

Eligible Tribal Nations can apply for grants of up to $500,000 to deliver direct assistance, fund compensatory programs, and implement supportive community-based initiatives. Grant applications will be accepted through the State of Arizona’s grant portal. Applicants must submit their proposals by Jan. 31, 2025.
