Community-Based Gang Intervention Act

Community-Based Gang Intervention Act

This bill expresses the sense of Congress that the United States should acknowledge and address social conditions such as poverty, homelessness, inadequate educational systems, and limited economic opportunities in developing a comprehensive gang violence reduction strategy.

It amends the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act of 1974 to: (1) require the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention to award grants to nonprofit community-based gang intervention agencies to provide services for reducing and stopping gang-related and gang-motivated violence and crime, (2) include representatives of community-based gang intervention agencies in juvenile justice and delinquency prevention advisory groups established by state plans, and (3) include community-based gang intervention and prevention activities in state and local grant programs for delinquency prevention.

Referred to the Subcommittee on Early Childhood, Elementary, and Secondary Education.
