This Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) 2023 Annual Report summarizes the programs offered by OJJDP to improve the lives of young people.
This Annual Report of the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) for 2023 provides detailed descriptions of OJJDP programs focused on transforming juvenile justice and improving young lives. Robust mentoring programs seek to ensure that children throughout the country have caring role models. Child protection programs keep young people safe from dire threats—from online exploitation to real world violence. OJJDP’s prevention and intervention efforts are focused on keeping children safe in their schools and communities by implementing a continuum of care framework. The continuum of care emphasizes the importance of serving more young people with prevention and low-level interventions to keep them from entering the juvenile justice system or moving deeper into it. Finally, OJJDP programs provide targeted support to state and Tribal juvenile justice systems to help young people successfully return to their communities from confinement.
