Funding After-School Programs to Reduce Juvenile Crime in High-Risk Areas.
This bill authorizes $100 million annually to fund after-school programs for students in grades 6 through 12 in counties struggling with high rates of juvenile violent crime. The goal is to provide safe, supervised, and educational activities after school hours, offering young people positive alternatives and potentially increasing community safety. This funding directly supports local schools and non-profits in targeted areas.
