Annually,
the State of New Jersey, through the Department of Law
& Public Safety - Juvenile Justice Commission, receives
a Title IIB Formula Grant, a Title IIE Challenge Grant,

Accountability Incentive Block Grant (JAIBG) award from
the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention
(OJJDP) in Washington, DC. |

67%
of the Title IIB Formula Grant must be spent on community-based
projects while the remaining 33% may be spent on state
level initiatives in accordance with the program areas
listed in the State's Three Year Comprehensive Plan.
Currently, the JJC allocates Title IIB Funding for compliance
monitoring, disproportionate minority confinement, serious
crime, innovative local law enforcement programs and
systems improvements. |

Title

reform project and to develop a gender specific model
program. |
