Opportunity Summary:

The NIJ FY 10 ORE Crime and Justice Research and Evaluation (Investigator Initiated) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NIJ 2010 2451) was a discretionary National Institute of Justice program designed to fund social and behavioral research, along with research-based evaluations, focused on crime and justice issues. The core aim was to support studies that can inform real-world criminal and juvenile justice policy and practice at the state, local, tribal, or federal level. In practical terms, NIJ was looking for investigator-driven proposals that either build new knowledge about crime and justice topics or rigorously evaluate programs, strategies, or interventions used by justice agencies and systems.

This opportunity fell under CFDA 16.560 (National Institute of Justice Research, Evaluation, and Development Project Grants) and was categorized as "Research and Evaluation." NIJ anticipated making about 12 awards. The solicitation listed no cost sharing or matching requirement, which meant applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award. The award ceiling and floor were both shown as 0 in the source record, which typically indicates that applicants needed to consult the full solicitation document for any actual funding limits, recommended budgets, or constraints on project size and duration.

Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning the competition was open to any type of entity, subject to any clarifications contained in the full solicitation. That generally signals a broad applicant pool, such as universities, nonprofit organizations, for-profit entities, and governmental units, as long as they can meet federal grant requirements and any program-specific conditions NIJ set out in the full announcement.

Applications had to be submitted through the Office of Justice Programs (OJP) Grants Management System (GMS), a web-based platform used for the full grant lifecycle (application, award, and ongoing grant management). NIJ emphasized starting the registration process as early as possible, especially for first-time users, because registration can take time and missed registration steps can delay submission. Applicants were directed to training and instructions for GMS registration and submission at www.ojp.usdoj.gov/gmscbt/. For technical problems with GMS, applicants could contact the GMS Help Desk by email at GMSHelpDesk@usdoj.gov or by phone at 1 888 549 9901 (option 3), available Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to midnight Eastern Time, excluding federal holidays.

Key dates in the posting record included a posted date of January 26, 2010, a creation date of February 3, 2010, and an application closing date of March 29, 2010 (with no difference between the original and current closing dates). The record also shows an archive date of August 31, 2010, indicating the opportunity is no longer open.

For programmatic questions and solicitation requirements beyond technical submission issues, NIJ listed points of contact including Karen Bachar (202 514 4403, Karen.Bachar@usdoj.gov), Louis Tuthill (202 307 1015, Louis.Tuthill@usdoj.gov), and Marilyn Moses (202 514 6205, Marilyn.Moses@usdoj.gov). The announcement also referenced an additional information link to the full solicitation document, which would contain the detailed research priorities, required application components, evaluation expectations, allowable costs, and any other terms and conditions governing the competition.
