Sites Selected for New Training and Technical Assistance Project

We are pleased to announce the selection of the initial three jurisdictions (Cohort 1) with which the RFK National Resource Center will partner to conduct the activities of the Dennis M. Mondoro Probation and Juvenile Justice System Enhancement Project, funded through the new grant award from the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency. The jurisdictions are:

  • Clark County, Nevada
  • Fairfax County, Virginia
  • Lancaster County, Nebraska

These jurisdictions will receive training and technical assistance (T&TA) from the RFK National Resource Center using our seminal Probation System Review Guidebook (new and enhanced Third Edition to be released in February 2019) and an impressive set of TA partners (including National Juvenile Defender Center, National Center for Juvenile Justice, Dr. Keith Cruise as an affiliate to National Youth Screening and Assessment Partners, and the UNC-Chapel Hill Impact Center). Together, the jurisdictions in Cohort 1, the RFK National Resource Center, and our national partners will support both probation and juvenile justice system transformation and subsequent evaluation of those changes to policy and practice. We are thrilled to welcome the impressive leaders and critical stakeholders from each site to this partnership.

The RFK National Resource Center will be adding three competitively selected jurisdictions (Cohort 2) to this project later in 2019. Please keep an eye out on our announcements so that you may submit an application for consideration.
