OJJDP is seeking proposals for the Community Supervision Training and Technical Assistance Program.
This grant program will provide training and technical assistance to state and local government agencies and federally recognized Indian tribes to support their efforts to implement evidence-based reform strategies to reduce recidivism and improve outcomes for juveniles under community supervision.
The successful applicant will assist local state governments as they develop and implement: (1) collaborative cross-disciplinary teams of state or local stakeholders providing community supervision services; (2) a plan to assess current policies, practices, and training for juvenile community supervision agencies; (3) strategies to strengthen systematic continuity of care throughout the phases of the reentry continuum; and (4) strategies to develop quality oversight and improvement in data collection methods to achieve a reduction in the jurisdiction’s historical baseline juvenile recidivism rate.
