Fiscal Year 1996 Discretionary Competitive Program Announcements and Application Kit

The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) has released its Fiscal Year 1996 Discretionary Competitive Program Announcements and Application Kit with funding opportunities to address violence by and against juveniles and to support intervention efforts for at-risk youth. The Application Kit focuses on three major new program areas: community assessment centers, partnerships to reduce juvenile gun violence, and improving community approaches to child abuse and neglect. OJJDP also will fund evaluations of these programs. In addition, training and technical assistance funds will be awarded in the areas of disproportionate minority confinement, Native American and Alaskan Native communities, and gender-specific services for female juvenile offenders. OJJDP is also soliciting proposals on juvenile mentoring programs and an evaluation of OJJDP's mentoring efforts to date. Finally, OJJDP is supporting a program of field-initiated research and evaluation.
