Proposal to Administer Technical Assistance to the Defending Childhood Task Force

This award is funded as one of a cohort of related Defending Childhood projects. This project specifically will raise public awareness about CEV issues at the local and national level by holding up to four (4) hearings featuring expert witness testimony on issues related to children's exposure to violence and develop the report that will be sent to the Attorney General in late 2012 containing recommendations to address this issue. This project will further the mission of the Child Protection Division by implementing program elements and producing deliverables as agreed upon in the project plan approved by OJJDP. NCA/NCF
