Opportunity Summary:
The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) grant opportunity titled Research and Evaluation in Justice Systems (Funding Opportunity Number NIJ 2011 2825) is a discretionary grant program intended to support research and evaluation projects that inform policy and practice in state and local criminal justice and juvenile justice systems. The overall aim is to generate credible, policy-relevant evidence about how justice system strategies, institutional decisions, and supervision approaches affect individuals, families, agencies, and communities. NIJ is looking for proposals that can produce findings useful to practitioners and policymakers, and it signals that applicants should align their work with NIJ priority areas described in the solicitation.
For Fiscal Year 2011, NIJ highlights three specific focus areas. First, it seeks a multi-state study examining the impact of incarceration on families of adults held in penal institutions, reflecting an interest in the collateral consequences of incarceration beyond the incarcerated individual. Second, it calls for a national study on state budget shortfalls and prison closings, a topic tied to how fiscal pressure shapes correctional policy, capacity, and system operations across jurisdictions. Third, it seeks multi-state research on automated reporting systems and kiosk supervision, indicating interest in technology-enabled supervision models and their implications for compliance monitoring, supervision resources, and outcomes. Applicants are expected to make their chosen focus area explicit, with application titles that clearly identify which of the highlighted topics the proposal addresses.
While NIJ emphasizes those FY 2011 priority topics, the solicitation also leaves room for proposals on other research areas related to criminal and/or juvenile justice systems policy and practice. In other words, the competition is not strictly limited to the three highlighted themes, but applicants are strongly encouraged to take NIJ priorities seriously when selecting questions, methods, and deliverables, because alignment typically affects competitiveness in peer review and funding decisions.
Administratively, this opportunity is offered as a grant under CFDA 16.560 (National Institute of Justice Research, Evaluation, and Development Project Grants). NIJ anticipated making about 10 awards. The posting date was December 17, 2010, with a closing date of March 17, 2011, and the opportunity was later archived on June 30, 2011. The award ceiling and floor are listed as 0 in the source record, which generally indicates that specific funding limits were not captured in this summary field and would need to be confirmed in the full solicitation. Cost sharing or matching is not required. Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning the competition was open to a broad range of applicant types, subject to any additional eligibility conditions that might be described in the full announcement.
For applicant support and topic-specific questions, NIJ provided points of contact: Marilyn C. Moses (marilyn.moses@usdoj.gov, 202 514 6205) for the incarceration-and-families focus area, and Laurie Bright (laurie.bright@usdoj.gov, 202 616 3624) for the automated reporting systems and kiosk supervision research area. The full solicitation details, including NIJ priority areas, required application components, and any methodological or reporting expectations, were available through the linked announcement referenced in the opportunity.
