'''Coordinating Council on Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention''' ('''CCJJDP''') is an independent body within the executive branch, administered by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP) under the Department of Justice, tasked with harmonizing federal efforts in juvenile justice. The Coordinating Council on Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention coordinates all federal programs related to juvenile delinquency prevention, detention of unaccompanied juveniles, and support for missing and exploited children, aiming to unify federal efforts, align policies, and provide strategic recommendations to enhance youth justice and safety across agencies. Notable aspects include its quarterly public meetings, its role in shaping the National Juvenile Justice Action Plan in the 1990s, and its ongoing production of biennial reports to Congress, such as the FY 2023–2024 Report, reflecting practitioner and agency input.
