FY 10 Title V Community Prevention Grants Program

This program intends to reduce risks and enhance protective factors to prevent at-risk youth from entering the juvenile justice systems and to intervene with first-time and non-serious offenders to keep them out of the juvenile justice system.
Connecticut will identify high need local communities to be eligible for Title V funding. Activities may include but are not limited to strategies targeting aggressive behaviors (fights, internet bullying, and other disciplinary infractions). The program framework will focus on universal and/or primary intervention which also includes summer camps, gender specific groups, extracurricular activities, and dissemination of family resource packets.
