Federal funding remains a significant source of support for criminal and juvenile justice-related research and evaluation. This presentation will provide audience members with the latest information available on the status of the Federal budget for Fiscal Year 2008. Appropriations for major justice-related funding streams such as the Byrne/Justice Assistance Grant (JAG), the Juvenile Accountability Block Grant (JABG), the Residential Substance Abuse Treatment (RSAT) program, Community-Oriented Policing Services (COPS), and proposed new initiatives such as the Violent Crime Reduction Partnership will be highlighted.
