FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: CONTACT: LYNN BECKER OR JESSICA CATLIN JULY 11, 2001 PHONE: (202) 224-5653 BIDEN AND KOHL INTRODUCE JUVENILE CRIME PREVENTION AND CONTROL ACT OF 2001 Comprehensive Crime-Fighting Bill Teams Prevention and Enforcement Efforts WASHINGTON – U.S. Senators Joe Biden (D-DE) and Herb Kohl (D-WI) today introduced the Juvenile Crime Prevention and Control Act of 2001, comprehensive prevention and enforcement legislation that will increase direct federal grants to local juvenile crime and delinquency prevention efforts. The bill would increase the authorization of Title V, the Community Prevention Grant program, to $250 million. Title V, which Kohl helped create in 1992, is a flexible program that permits each locality, through a local planning board of experts from the community, to determine how to best fight juvenile crime and delinquency. "This bill addresses the issues most important to our communities, to the police, to the teachers, to the social workers, and most importantly, to the at-risk children whom we need to help. The legislation does this by giving crime prevention programs the priority, attention, and funding they deserve while recognizing that enforcement programs are indispensable to safer communities," Kohl said. Studies prove that crime prevention programs mean less crime. For example, a RAND study found that crime prevention efforts were three times more cost-effective than increased punishment. A study of the Big Brothers/Big Sisters' mentoring program showed that participants were 46 percent less likely to use drugs, 27 percent less likely to use alcohol, 33 percent less likely to commit assault, and skipped 50 percent fewer days of school. And a University of Wisconsin study of 64 after-school programs found that participating children became better students and developed improved conflict resolution skills; in addition, vandalism decreased at one third of the schools that participated in the programs.

6. Juvenile Crime in New South Wales Report: Crime Prevention Strategies Summary Increasingly, recognition is being given to the fact that crime is the result of complex changes in economic, social and cultural factors. Research is also consistently pointing to factors such as unemployment, dysfunctional families, child abuse, poor education, community breakdown, economic inequality and substance abuse as the main causes of crime.[1] Advocates of strategic crime prevention share a view that 'traditional' punitive measures have failed to curb crime in countries the world over. It is argued that the call by the 'law and order lobby' to increase police numbers and to impose longer and harsher sentences, although popular, has proven both ineffective and very expensive.[2] 6.1 Failure of Traditional Methods However, the fact remains that both the authorities and the public believe the rate juvenile crime to be excessive and after some time come to blame the policy of leniency. The response is a toughening of responses to juvenile offending, particularly the more serious offenders, but with a commensurate toughening down the scale. This continues until few lenient measures are available to authorities. "At this point, justice officials and the general public remain convinced that juvenile crime is at an exceptionally high level and justice officials often are forced to choose between harshly punishing juvenile offenders and doing nothing at all. The cycle has returned to where it started."[5]

A cash reward was offered to anonymous persons who telephone the Crime Stoppers hot line with information which led to the arrest and indictment of the person(s) responsible for felony offenses. The Crime Stoppers program has enjoyed great success boasting an average conviction rate of 95% on cases solved by Crime Stoppers' tips. The Crime Stoppers programs worldwide have solved over a half a million crimes and recovered over 3 billion dollars worth of stolen property and narcotics. Today, there are over 1,000 Crime Stoppers programs in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, South Africa, Bahamas, British West Indies, Micronesia, and other nations.

Duplin Juvenile Crime Prevention Council Mission Statement The Duplin County Juvenile Crime Prevention Council envisions a community where its youth are well educated, healthy, law abiding, contributing members of society who respect the rights of others and themselves. About the JCPC In 1998, as a result of much hard work and planning, the Juvenile Justice Reform Act was passed. The Act mandated that the Juvenile Service Division of the Administrative Office of the Courts and the Division of Youth Services and Division of Human Services be merged to form a single office that would be directly administrated by the Governor. The "new" office of Juvenile Justice is more responsive and comprehensive in policy and planning. The intent of the General Assembly was to prevent juveniles who are at risk from becoming delinquent. The primary intent of this part is to develop community-based alternatives to training schools and to provide community-based delinquency and substance abuse prevention strategies and programs. Also, it was the intent of the General Assembly to provide noninstructional alternatives that will protect the community and the juveniles. Additionally, the Juvenile Justice Reform Act required county commissioners to appoint a new Juvenile Crime Prevention Council to enhance and replace all existing Youth Services Advisory Councils (CBA Boards).

Structured activities permit parents to participate with their children with the goal of strengthening family relationships. This program offers families an eight-week intensive series of services. Once the program is completed, families continue to participate in FASTWORKS, a two-year follow-up program. Mothers And Sons targets boys ages 10 to 14 who have no male role model living in the home. Through positive relationships with male staff members, and regular support group meetings for their mothers, the program seeks to prevent these youth from becoming involved in the juvenile justice system. Youth in Progress , which operates through a subcontract with L.A. County Probation, serves youth who have already become involved in the juvenile justice system. This program component offers participants significant positive alternatives to delinquent behavior. Regular home visits, weekly tutoring, and field trips are combined with an intensive weekly curriculum that, over a span of six months, addresses such topics as communication, coping with stress, and life skills.

City of Kansas City Neighborhood and Community Services Department The Arts and Juvenile Crime Prevention In February of 1999 a report on National Public Radio spoke of research that had shown that youth participating in an organized athletic program were 50% less likely to become involved in the juvenile justice system, but that youth involved in an organized arts program were 80% less likely. Recent information from Chicago's Gallery 37 arts program indicated that over 95% of the young people involved increased their grade point average. Gallery 37 does not teach any of the "3Rs." A group of representatives of youth serving agencies, individual artists, artists groups, representatives of city and county government, and the Family Court met approximately one year ago to discuss how the metro area could use this information to have a positive impact on our young people. Other programs around the nation were researched and local programs were presented that had arts as their central theme. A three-phase program was designed. Funding, along with both public and private support, as always, was the key. In March of 1999 the City of Kansas City, Missouri was allocated $630,000 by the U.S. Department of Justice Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grant (JAIBG). The grant was to be used to develop programs in the juvenile justice arena to provide for graduated sanctions for crimes committed by youthful offenders. The juvenile justice system is a county function, so the City of Kansas City, Missouri waived its funding to the Jackson County COMBAT agency and the "Sentenced to the Arts" program was initiated. COMBAT provides the grant administrator and the required match.
