This OJJDP grant, authorized by the Second Chance Act of 2007, is designed to support the successful reintegration of juveniles transitioning from secure confinement facilities back into their communities. The program addresses the increasing number of youth released from juvenile detention centers, correctional facilities, or staff-secure facilities. The grant’s purpose is to ensure that juveniles, who have been confined under juvenile court jurisdiction, make a smooth and effective transition to community life. By fostering successful reentry, this initiative aims to improve outcomes for these young individuals, promote public safety, and reduce recidivism, ultimately contributing to their long-term well-being and community stability.
