OJJDP FY 2010 Technology Facilitated Crimes Against Children Research | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The OJJDP FY 2010 Technology Facilitated Crimes Against Children Research grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number OJJDP 2010 2535) is a discretionary federal grant program from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). It focuses on strengthening the nation s ability to prevent and respond to juvenile victimization and juvenile delinquency, with a specific emphasis here on crimes against children that are enabled or amplified by technology. In practical terms, the program is aimed at building a clearer, evidence-based picture of how technology is used to target, exploit, lure, or harm young people, and then using that research to shape better policies and more effective interventions across child protection and justice systems.

The central purpose of this solicitation is research. OJJDP is seeking projects that expand understanding of the scope, prevalence, and dynamics of technology facilitated crimes against children, particularly as they relate to missing and exploited children, child abduction, and situations where children are at heightened risk for exploitation or other serious adverse outcomes. The funding is intended to support studies that can inform public policy and improve real-world responses, including prevention strategies, investigative and system responses, and coordinated approaches across agencies and communities. The program authority is tied to 42 USC 5775, and it is aligned with the CFDA listing 16.543, Missing Childrens Assistance.

Funding for the opportunity was estimated at 2,000,000 total, with an award ceiling of up to 2,000,000. OJJDP anticipated making about five awards, suggesting that awards could vary in size depending on the scope and cost of proposed research. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which reduces the barrier for applicants that may not have access to nonfederal matching funds.

Eligible applicants are broad and include many of the institutions typically positioned to conduct policy-relevant research or manage multi-agency studies. Eligibility includes public and state controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), independent school districts, and a range of government entities (city or township governments, county governments, state governments, special district governments, public housing authorities including Indian housing authorities, and federally recognized Native American tribal governments). This breadth reflects the reality that research and effective response planning may be led by universities, nonprofits specializing in child protection, or governmental entities with direct responsibility for youth services and justice system operations.

In terms of timing and administrative details, the opportunity was posted on March 4, 2010, with an original and current closing date of May 3, 2010, and an archive date of June 2, 2010. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the activity category is Law, Justice and Legal Services. Applicants needing help accessing the full announcement were directed to contact Jeffrey Gersh, Program Manager, at 202 514 5535, with an agency contact email referenced in the listing.

Overall, this solicitation is best understood as a targeted research investment by OJJDP to improve national knowledge and practice around technology-related harms to children. By funding studies that document the problem and evaluate or inform responses, the program aims to help jurisdictions and practitioners protect children more effectively, hold offenders accountable, and strengthen prevention and intervention approaches that are responsive to the realities of online and technology-enabled victimization.
