The JJAG's
priorities are guided by its three year plan. The
plan provides the framework for JJAG's course of action in
terms of funding priorities, research directions, and
legislative policy. The JJAG's current strategic plan
involves the following priorities:
 |
To
promote effective, system level responses that further
the goals of the Juvenile Justice Delinquency Act;
|
|
To
promote the development of gender specific services for
Maine's juvenile justice system;
|
|
To
ensure that youth are not detained for lack of
appropriate alternatives;
|
|
To
reduce delinquency and youth violence by providing
community members with skills, knowledge, and
opportunities to foster a healthy and nurturing
environment that supports the growth and development of
productive and responsible citizens;
|
|
To
provide information and training to legislators,
juvenile justice professionals, and the general public
to benefit youth and all those involved with Maine's
juvenile justice system; and
|
|
To
maintain compliance with the core requirements of the
JJDP Act and to monitor the compliance of JJAG grantees.
