Eligibility

Applicants are limited to states (including territories) and units of local government (including federally recognized tribal governments, as determined by the Secretary of the Interior). OJJDP welcomes joint applications from two or more eligible applicants; however, one applicant must be clearly indicated as the primary applicant (for correspondence, award, and management purposes) and the others indicated as co-applicants. Applicants must demonstrate a significant crime and violence problem affecting youth (specifically, high levels of shootings and killings over an extended period of time) to be eligible for this program. OJJDP will give preference to applicants that have high levels of support within local government. Specifically, successful applicants will be those that have signed letters of support from, at a minimum, a mayor or chief executive officer, chief of police, and the local school superintendent and have proven how the implementation of their comprehensive, community-based violence prevention strategy fits into the local government�s youth violence prevention plan(s).
