Funding amounts for this year's NIJ Crime and Justice Research solicitation have increased and are oriented around strategic objectives.
We're looking for innovative proposals in the areas of: predicting changes in crime; human trafficking; terrorism with a special focus on radicalization pathways and programs to interdict financial support; preventing gang crime; improving prosecution and defense in the United States; and identifying specific components of successful re-entry programs.
We will also consider precedent-setting ideas that fall outside of these strategic objectives. Such proposals should break new ground on issues of key significance to policy and practice.
Up to $10 million may be available. As always, the questions your research answers should have clear implications for criminal justice policy and practice.
