Challenge to the States
The 1992 reauthorization of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (JJDP)
Act of 1974 added Part E, State Challenge Activities, to the programs funded
by OJJDP. The purpose of Part E was to provide initiatives for States participating
in the Formula Grants Program to develop, adopt, and improve policies and programs
in 1 or more of 10 specified Challenge areas. Note: In 2003, the State Challenge
program was dissolved; the activity papers listed below are therefore being
replaced by online Bulletins in the Juvenile
Justice Practice Series.
