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 overall goal for EUDL funding is to enforce North Dakota state laws prohibiting the sale of alcoholic beverages to minors and to prevent the purchase or consumption of alcoholic beverages by minors throughout the state. Four primary goals for funding include: 1) enforcement activities such as underage drinking enforcement and compliance checks, which will be measured by the number of agencies involved or the number of retail establishments checked or in compliance; 2) Parents LEAD underage drinking prevention program, which is measured by the number of parents utilizing the program and earned media; and 3) enhance capacity for North Dakota's tribes to address underage drinking issues on the Native American reservations, which will be measured by the number policy changes, number of strategies implemented, and number of communities/individuals training in underage drinking environmental prevention strategies.
