Reauthorization of the Federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA)
Central to CJJ’s mission is to strengthen and refine the strategic impact of the state advisory system under the federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA), especially with regard to core roles of the State Advisory Groups on Juvenile Justice (SAGs):
- developing and implementing State 3-Year Plans;
- optimal use of the federal funds for system improvements, and family- and community-connected services and support for children and youth involved with the courts;
- monitoring, and more importantly, supporting compliance with the federal core requirements (Jail Removal, Sight and Sound Separation, Deinstitutionalization of Status Offenders, and Disproportionate Minority Contact).
