摘要

The Discretionary Grant Program is designed to increase the range of effectiveprograms, practices, and strategies available to enhance the capabilities of State and local criminal justice practitioners in their efforts to control violence, crime, and drugs. This is accomplished through demonstration programs, evaluations of new practices and technologies, the transfer of program models, and the provision of technical assistance and training. A key focus of the Program Plan for 1994 is violence and effective community responses to it. In particular, we are stressing programs involving: prevention of violence by youth; community oriented policing; and community empowerment.
