OJJDP hosted an orientation session for new Tribal Youth Program (TYP) and Tribal Juvenile Accountability Discretionary Grant (T–JADG) Program grantees in Bethesda, MD, from November 18–20. The 3-day training was designed to strengthen relationships between OJJDP and TYP and T–JADG grantees. Grantees were instructed on program and financial management; program planning, implementation, evaluation, and sustainability strategies; and training and technical assistance resources available from OJJDP and other Federal agencies. The meeting also provided grantees networking opportunities to meet with OJJDP leadership and program managers to discuss their new TYP and T–JADG programs and to meet with other grantees. Approximately 42 participants attended, representing 21 American Indian/Alaska Native tribal communities from 12 States.
