Crime and Justice Research Solicitation

Funding amounts for this year's NIJ Crime and Justice Research solicitation have doubled—up to $4 million may be available. We also extended the time for applicants to write proposals—90 days.

According to the NIJ, “We're looking for innovative, precedent-setting ideas in what we call our "open" solicitation for social and behavioral research and evaluation on
criminal justice and juvenile justice policy and practice.

As always, the questions your research answers should have clear implications for
criminal justice policy and practice. Other NIJ solicitations and awards can help you focus on targeted topics of interest.”

Proposals are due: March 5, 2008

NIJ's open solicitations:

Terrorism (due: February 5, 2008)
Abuse, neglect, and exploitation of elders (due: February 5, 2008)
Topics of upcoming targeted solicitations:

Human trafficking
Crime prevention and control with a focus on gangs
American Indian Alaska Native
Crime and Justice Research
Safe Community Release for Pretrial and Jail Populations
Social Science Research in
Forensic Science
Criminal Justice Technology Evaluation
Justice System Responses to Violence Against Women
