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.”
