Minnesota Juvenile Accountability Block Grant FFY 2012

The Juvenile Justice Advisory Council (JJAC) of the Minnesota Department of Public Safety has determined that the State will focus its FY 2012 JABG efforts on two of the JABG Purpose Areas (PA): PA 6 - Training Programs for Law Enforcement Information obtained in these trainings will be used to create a set of strategies for Law Enforcement officers to address DMC issues. PA 11 - Accountability, for which the JJAC Youth Caucus and other identified youth groups, will continue to work to address DMC within their communities. JJAC will also assist law enforcement to educate at risk youth on the collateral consequences of their delinquent behavior. Minnesota passes through 75% of their JABG funds to units of local government. NCA/NCF
