Grants

Formula Grants Program

The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) Formula Grants
Program supports state and local delinquency prevention efforts and juvenile justice system
improvements. Congress appropriates formula grant funds and OJJDP awards them to the
50 states, 5 territories, and the District of Columbia on the basis of their proportionate
population younger than age 18. At least two-thirds of the funds awarded to each state must
be used for programs that local public and private agencies operate and eligible American
Indian tribal programs.
