Summary:
The Runaway and Homeless Youth Program (RHYP) funds basic centers and transitional living projects. Funding for FY1998 is $58.5 million. The President has requested $58.6 million for FY1999. The House Appropriations Committee has reported the FY1999 Labor-HHS-Education Appropriation bill (H.R. 4274, H.Rept. 105-635), approving $58.5 million for RHYP. The reauthorization of RHYP is traditionally part of the reauthorization of the juvenile justice and delinquency prevention programs--this year the Violent and Repeat Juvenile Offender Act of 1997 (S. 10) in the Senate and the Juvenile Crime Control and Delinquency Prevention Act of 1997 (H.R. 1818) in the House. The House has passed H.R. 1818, and the Senate Committee on the Judiciary has reported S. 10.
