OJJDP FY 2011 National Gang Center
The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) and Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) will award a cooperative agreement to continue the activities of the National Gang Center (NGC).
NGC provides training and technical assistance to OJP-funded programs and communities across the country.

Many of these strategies and effective programs are on the NGCs Strategic Planning Tool that is designed to help communities assess and address local gang problems.
This award will continue and expand the activities of the National Gang Center.
This program will be authorized by an act appropriating funds for the Department of Justice.
