Title II Grant Program
The Title II Grant program is funded by the U.S. Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) to support delinquency prevention and juvenile justice system improvement. Title II funds awarded to California support local efforts to plan, establish, operate, coordinate, and evaluate projects directly, or through grants and contracts with public and private agencies, for the development of more effective education, training, research, prevention, diversion, treatment, and rehabilitation programs and reform efforts in delinquency prevention and juvenile justice system improvement.
Request for Offers (RFO)
The SACJJDP is soliciting offers from local nonprofit organizations and Native American Tribes to hold community meetings for the purpose of receiving community feedback on the specific juvenile justice system needs in the local area. The results of the communities’ input will assist the SACJJDP in developing the 2021-2023 3-year state plan and will again determine the local program areas of focus and types of programs to support with Title II grant funds
