OpportunityTitle: OJJDP FY 18 Addressing Training Needs for Juvenile Prosecutors
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: Eligible applicants are limited to state (including territories) agencies responsible for administering, managing, or overseeing the training, education, and professional development needs of prosecutors.      OJJDP welcomes applications under which two or more entities would carry out the federal award; however, only one entity may be the applicant. Any others must be proposed as subrecipients (subgrantees).  The applicant must be the entity that would have primary responsibility for carrying out the award, including administering the funding and managing the entire program.
Description: This program will support funding to state prosecutors offices&#226;&#128;&#153; that are responsible for administering training to state prosecutors, such as State Prosecutor Coordinating Offices, to address training gaps and needs for juvenile prosecutors. Funding can be used to identify, develop and/or supplement state-wide training resources and tools for juvenile prosecutors and their support staff. The goal of this program is to strengthen the skills and knowledge base for juvenile prosecutors in order to enhance public safety and improve outcomes for youth.
