Note:
This awardee has received supplemental funding. This award detail page includes information about both the original award and supplemental awards.
OJJDP's State and Community Development Awards program was established to provide grants and cooperative agreements to organizations that OJJDP has selected for funds in prior years. This program has been authorized by an Act appropriating funds for the Department of Justice.
The goal of the Enforcing Underage Drinking Laws (EUDL) Program is to support and enhance State efforts, in cooperation with local jurisdictions, to enforce laws prohibiting the sale of alcoholic beverages, or the consumption of alcoholic beverages by minors. For the purpose of the program, minors are defined as individuals under 21 years of age.
The New Hampshire Department of Justice's Enforcing Underage Drinking Laws grant program currently subgrants to twelve agencies including five county sheriff departments, the NH State Liquor Commission and six local police departments. The twelve subgrantees represent statewide coverage of underage drinking enforcement activities. The goals are to target adult providers of alcohol, increase training opportunities in intervention and enforcement, and to educate youth regarding the physical, emotional and intellectual consequences of underage alcohol use.
