Background

    Title V of the JJDP Act was enacted in 1992. The first 
appropriation, in the amount of $13 million, was for Fiscal Year 1994. 
OJJDP published the final funding Guideline for the program in the 
Federal Register on August 1, 1994, Vol. 59, No.146, pp. 39204-39213. 
The provisions contained in that Guideline apply to the program for 
Fiscal Year 1995, except for the following changes:

State Application Requirements and Deadline

    Application requirements outlined in the 1994 funding Guideline 
remain unchanged. State applications are due to OJJDP not later than 60 
days after the effective date of this notice.

Allocation of Title V Funds to States

    For Fiscal Year 1995, the Title V appropriation is $20 million. 
OJJDP is proposing to allocate $1 million of the Title V appropriation 
to support the prevention component of the Safe Futures: Partnerships 
to Reduce Youth Violence and Delinquency Program. A description of the 
Safe Futures Program may be found in the OJJDP Proposed Comprehensive 
Plan for Fiscal Year 1995, published in the Federal Register on 
December 30, 1994, Vol. 59, No. 250, pp. 68080-68102. Any changes to 
the proposed allocations of Title V will be announced in the Federal 
Register. The remaining $19 million, plus $257,000 not awarded in F.Y. 
1994, is available for the Title V Delinquency Prevention Program. 
Awards will be made to States, to be transmitted through the State 
Advisory Groups, to eligible units of general local government. The 
minimum allocation for States is $100,000, and $33,000 for Territories 
and Possessions. A list of the proposed State allocations is available 
from OJJDP.

Duration of Grants

    OJJDP will award grants to States for a project period beginning on 
the date of award and ending on September 30, 1997.
