Through this notice of funding opportunity, OJJDP seeks to support states' research-based, developmentally appropriate, trauma-informed responses to youth offending and other public safety and community challenges identified through stakeholder engagement and data analysis. OJJDP anticipates that jurisdictions will convene a diverse committee of critical stakeholders, including state level decisionmakers, juvenile court judges, juvenile justice agency leaders (including juvenile probation, detention, and corrections), policymakers, mental health professionals, community advocates, schools, prosecutors, law enforcement, youth- and family-serving organizations, justice-involved youth and their families, and others concerned with the fair administration of juvenile justice. Stakeholders should represent urban, suburban, rural, and Tribal communities, as appropriate.
