Juvenile Justice System Improvement Project - Now Accepting Applications
Reminder: Letters of Interest are due by April 14, 2011
The Center for Juvenile Justice Reform (CJJR) at Georgetown University is pleased to announce the launch of a new project designed to reduce crime and delinquency and improve positive outcomes for youth in the juvenile justice system through the implementation of more efficient and effective juvenile justice administration.
This new project, named the Juvenile Justice System Improvement Project (JJSIP), will help states improve outcomes for juvenile offenders by better translating knowledge on “what works” into everyday practice and policy. The JJSIP takes the vast amount of knowledge gained through Dr. Mark Lipsey’s meta-analysis of effective juvenile justice programs and embeds it within the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention’s Comprehensive Strategy for Serious, Violent, and Chronic Juvenile Offenders as developed by Dr. James C. Howell and John Wilson. In doing so, the JJSIP provides a framework for improving juvenile justice practice throughout the entire juvenile justice continuum.
Georgetown University will select three states to participate in an intensive training and then receive 18-months of technical assistance to implement this approach. Letters of Interest are due by April 14. A conference call for prospective applicants will be held on March 30, 2011 at 3:30pm EDT (call in number: 1-866-910-4857, code 863624#).
