Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP): A major focus of the Office?s work is providing information to the public on juvenile justice. On their site you get links to statistics, grant form, publications, and events. See: Guide for Implementing the Balanced and RJ Model (BARJ Project) Shay Bilchik, Dec. 1998 Guide defines the balanced approach for Restorative Justice to have 3 goals: accountability, competency development and community safety. Each of these is addressed individually and collectively with helpful examples of programs that fit each category.

The National Criminal Justice Reference Service (NCJRS) has a wealth of information on criminal and juvenile justice in the world, providing services to an international community of policymakers and professionals. NCJRS is a collection of clearinghouses supporting all bureaus of the U.S. Department of Justice.
