Abstract	Text of a Congressional hearing on the reauthorization of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act is presented in this document. The hearing opens with a statement by Representative Dale E. Kildee, who states this hearing will focus on Title III of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act which authorizes services for runaway and homeless youth in the Homeless Youth Act. He describes the goal of this act not as family unification, but as preparation for independent living. An additional statement by Representative Thomas J. Tauke describes the two groups of runaway youth needing help as those who need short-term assistance to return home, and those who cannot be returned home and are in great danger of exploitation and abuse. Testimony of these witnesses is presented: (1) Beverly Edmonds, executive director, Metro-Help, Chicago, Illinois; (2) James H. Walker, chair, board of directors, National Network of Runaway and Youth Services, Tulsa, Oklahoma; (3) Paget Wilson Hinch, associate commissioner, Family and Youth Services Bureau, Administration for Children, Youth and Families; (4) Deborah Shore, executive director, Sasha Bruce Youthwork; (5) Hida Avent, executive director, Stepping Stone; (6) Carol Thomas-Smedes, vice president, Michigan Network of Runaway and Youth Services; and (7) Mike Montoya, A Step Forward, The Sanctuary. Additional materials are included by witnesses giving testimony, persons representing other groups, and Representative Mickey Leland. (ABL)
