The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) requests clearance to conduct the 2025 Census of Tribal Law Enforcement Agencies (CTLEA). The CTLEA was first collected in 2019 (reference year of 2018) and is part of the larger BJS portfolio of tribal justice data collections that comprise the Tribal Justice Statistics Program (TJSP).

The CTLEA collects aggregated administrative data from all tribal law enforcement agencies in Indian country, which consists of approximately 300 agencies, including tribally operated agencies, those operated by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) and the Alaska State Troopers on behalf of the Village Public Safey Officers Program (VPSO).
