Program Helps Kids Obtain A Second Chance
|
The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Programs, the Office of Justice Programs and the Department of Justice offer the Second Chance Act Juvenile Offender Reentry Program for Planning and Demonstration Projects. This program tries to help kids who’ve been in jail to successfully reintegrate into society as a law-abiding citizen. Due to the increasing number of kids who are released from jail, this project helps the transition between jail and the community. The deadline for this grant is July 11, 2011 at 11:59 E.S.T.
Eligibility: Applicants are limited to states, territories, units of local governments and must adhere to all eligibility and funding requirements of the Second Chance Act.
