PROGRAM OBJECTIVES:
To encourage State and local jurisdictions to focus on the effective management of juvenile and adult sex offenders by engaging key stakeholders in a process that will build a base of knowledge regarding the practices currently employed by the jurisdiction, and develop and implement management strategies for these offenders that span the sanctioning continuum and specifically to ensure that jurisdictions include, as a critical part of their comprehensive approach, a well defined re-entry component for sex offenders being released from incarceration.
