NIJ FY 08 ORE Crime and Justice

The Crime and Justice Research solicitation is NIJ's "open" solicitation for social and behavioral research and evaluation on topics relevant to State and/or local criminal and juvenile justice policy and practice. Most crime and justice topics that are relevant to policymakers and practitioners are eligible for consideration. Potential applicants are encouraged to read NIJ's targeted solicitations as they are released to determine which solicitation is most appropriate for their proposal and to get an indication of NIJ's areas of interest. Under this Crime and Justice Research solicitation, priority will be given to applications for funding of research in areas that do not duplicate NIJ's targeted solicitations, or applications that could be considered under those targeted solicitations but require substantially higher levels of funding.
