Applying Situational Crime Prevention to Sexual Assaults in Jail Facilities: An Action Research Partnership

This award is supplemental to 2006-RP-BX-0040, using situational crime prevention techniques to improve jail safety as it relates to sexual and other types of violence. The NIJ required the grantee to delay its data collection period by 6 months in order for the grantee not to interfere with the legislatively mandated data collection by the Bureau of Justice Statistics. This caused a cost overrun by the grantee and NIJ has supplemented the grant with these funds.
