The Youth Violence Prevention Grant Program, funded by the Banking Institution, aims to develop and implement a comprehensive strategy targeting middle and high school age youth in Delaware, particularly those with multiple risk factors for violence.

Delaware's unique demographic and geographic features, such as its high rate of violent crime in Wilmington and the presence of frontier counties in the western part of the state, necessitate a tailored approach. The Delaware Department of Justice, in collaboration with the Division of Youth Rehabilitative Services, plays a crucial role in addressing youth violence through initiatives such as the Delaware Youth Violence Prevention Initiative. This context informs the priority outcomes for the grant program.
