Opportunity Summary:
The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) grant opportunity titled "Research and Evaluation on Sexual Violence, Stalking, and Teen Dating Violence" (Funding Opportunity Number NIJ 2010-2433) is a discretionary grant program intended to support research and evaluation projects focused on violence against women, with a specific emphasis on sexual violence, stalking, and teen dating violence. NIJ is looking for studies that can produce practical, evidence-based insights that improve women’s safety and strengthen the justice system and allied responses to these crimes. In other words, the goal is not only to document harm, but to generate findings that can shape better policies, practices, interventions, and coordinated responses among criminal justice agencies and related service systems.
A central theme of the solicitation is improving the understanding of how the criminal justice system responds to sexual violence and stalking. NIJ is interested in research that examines the real-world processing of these cases, including the decision points and outcomes that occur from reporting through investigation, prosecution, and case resolution. This can include identifying barriers to effective response, gaps in investigation and evidence practices, factors that influence victim engagement and case attrition, and differences in how agencies handle sexual violence and stalking cases. Projects that clarify what helps or harms effective justice system action are directly aligned with the solicitation’s intent.
The opportunity also highlights teen dating violence as a key research area, with two related priorities. First, NIJ seeks research that measures and explains the scope and nature of teen dating violence, including the extent of the problem and the characteristics of abusive teen relationships. This suggests an interest in work that improves measurement and understanding of patterns of abuse among teens, the contexts in which it occurs, and the risk and protective factors that shape these relationships. Second, NIJ specifically calls for evaluations that assess the impact and effectiveness of programs, policies, and legislation aimed at preventing or addressing teen dating violence. This can include evaluating school-based or community interventions, examining implementation quality and fidelity, and determining whether laws or policies lead to meaningful improvements in safety, reporting, service access, or justice outcomes.
From an administrative standpoint, this is a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) categorized under research and evaluation activities. NIJ expected to make about five awards under this solicitation. No cost sharing or matching is required. The award floor and ceiling are listed as 0 in the source summary, which typically means applicants must refer to the full solicitation document for the actual funding ranges, allowable costs, and project period details. Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning the competition is open to a broad range of applicant types, subject to any additional clarifications in the full announcement.
Key dates in the announcement indicate it was posted and created on March 31, 2010, with an original and current closing date of June 1, 2010, and an archive date of June 30, 2010. The solicitation includes an additional information link pointing applicants to the full solicitation document, where requirements such as proposal structure, evaluation standards, data plans, human subjects protections, and reporting expectations would be spelled out.
NIJ also provided topic-specific points of contact for applicants who need help interpreting requirements or aligning proposals to the solicitation’s goals. For sexual violence research inquiries, the contact is Karen Bachar at (202) 514-4403. For stalking research inquiries, the contact is Bernie Auchter at (202) 307-0154. For teen dating violence research inquiries, the contact is Carrie Mulford at (202) 307-2959.
