The Federal Advisory Committee on Juvenile Justice is a consultative body established by the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 2002 and supported by OJJDP. Composed of representatives nominated by the Governors, the Committee advises the President and Congress on matters related to juvenile justice, evaluates the progress and accomplishments of juvenile justice activities and projects, and advises the OJJDP Administrator on the work of OJJDP.
The Committee is currently developing a survey to gather input from the states for its upcoming 2006 Reports to the President and the OJJDP Administrator. The Committee's 2004 Reports are available at www.facjj.org/annualreports.html.
The Committee's next meeting will be held October 24–25, 2005, in San Antonio, TX. Observers are invited to open sessions only. Individuals who wish to attend as observers must preregister by e-mailing the Juvenile Justice Resource Center at facjj@jjrc.org.
Summaries of previous meetings and other information about the Advisory Committee are available on the Committee's Web site.
