| | Title V Community Prevention Grants Program, 2000 Report to Congress | | (NCJ 190635) February 2002 | | Report, 56 page(s) | | Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention | | | | Presents the activities and accomplishments of the Title V Community Prevention Grants Program. In 1992, Congress amended the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 1974 to establish Title V—Incentive Grants for Local Delinquency Prevention Programs. Referred to as the Community Prevention Grants Program, Title V provides States and communities with the framework, funding, and tools to establish community-based strategies that deter youth from delinquent behavior. By focusing on efforts that prevent delinquency in today's youth, the Community Prevention Grants Program attempts to reduce the level of delinquency in the future. This seventh annual Report to Congress describes how States and communities across the Nation implemented the Community Prevention Grants Program in 2000 and examines their experiences and accomplishments. | |
