Opportunity Information: Apply for NIJ 2009 2005
The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) is offering a grant opportunity to enhance the efficiency and capacity of public forensic DNA laboratories in response to the growing demand for DNA testing. This need arises from an increase in the collection and submission of forensic evidence by law enforcement, as well as expanded state laws requiring DNA samples from a broader range of offenders.
NIJ is looking for proposals from state and local governments aimed at improving laboratory processes. Priorities will be given to innovative solutions that could have a broad impact on the forensic DNA community. The goal is to publish successful methodologies as models for other laboratories.
It's important to note that this funding will not support projects that overlap with those eligible for the FY2009 Forensic DNA Backlog Reduction Program. Applications must include a clear plan detailing how the funds will be utilized to achieve the program's goals, with a strong emphasis on innovative approaches suitable for publication by NIJ.Apply for NIJ 2009 2005
