OJJDP FY 2014 Initiative To Develop and Test Guidelines for Juvenile Drug Courts
This initiative will support the creation of research-informed guidelines for juvenile drug courts that will promote effective practice and quality service delivery for juveniles with substance abuse disorders that these courts serve. This project includes two phases: (1) to develop guidelines and (2) to test the guidelines. During the first phase, the successful applicant will work with OJJDP to develop guidelines for juvenile drug courts that are evidence- and research- informed, have practical and operational application, and build upon previous knowledge and work. During the second phase, the award recipient will work with OJJDP to implement and operationalize the guidelines via competitive research subawards. The award recipient will incorporate the findings from this research into recommended modifications to the guidelines, as appropriate, to conclude Phase 2. This program is authorized by the Department of Justice Appropriations Act, 2014, Pub. L. No. 113-76, 128 Stat. 5, 62, and 42 U.S.C. § 3797u.
