The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) will conduct a comprehensive process and outcome evaluation of the Juvenile Justice Reform and Reinvestment Initiative.
This new initiative is made possible through the Partnership Fund for Program Integrity Innovation (the Partnership
credit:
Fund that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)) administers.
The initiative will fund as many as three sites to develop and implement an integrated set of research-based and cost-measurement tools to help them realign juvenile justice services and costs.
The evaluator will track the implementation and outcome of activities and determine whether the initiative has had the intended effect.
The evaluator will identify and adapt, as necessary, all measurement tools for the evaluation, including cost measurement tool(s) at the site level.
