| | Title V Community Prevention Grants Program, 2003 Report to Congress | | (NCJ 207694) May 2005 | | Report, 32 page(s) | | | | Reviews the background of the Title V Program; highlights state, local, and federal activities in 2003; describes how states and communities responded to the loss of Title V funds in 2003; and outlines OJJDP’s plans for enhancing the positive impact of limited Title V funds in the future. Established by Congress in 1992, the Title V Program supports state and local efforts to reduce risk factors associated with juvenile delinquency and enhance protective factors that promote healthy personal and social development. To date, more than 1,500 communities have received funding through Title V formula-based allocations to the states. In fiscal year 2003, however, Congress designated the majority of Title V funds for earmarked programs, necessitating the suspension of formula-based allocations. | |
