OJJDP will select up to 10 sites to participate in the initial 18-month budget period, and OJJDP may award supplemental funding for three additional 1-year periods.This national evaluation will assess which program strategies yield the best outcomes for children and enhance understanding of the scope of the problem of children's exposure to violence.
