Three communities—Lucas County, OH; Forsyth County, NC; and Duval County, FL—will receive a total of $5.27 million in funding from the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) over the next 4 years to integrate the Reclaiming Futures drug and alcohol treatment program for teens in trouble with the law into their juvenile drug courts. The Reclaiming Futures national program office, located in the Regional Research Institute at the School of Social Work at Portland State University, will receive $1.4 million over 2 years to provide training and technical assistance to the six existing federally funded Reclaiming Futures sites and the three new sites.
