Opportunity Information: Apply for NIJ 2012 3099
The Solving Cold Cases With DNA grant opportunity, offered by the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), invites applications from state and local governments to secure funding aimed at investigating and resolving violent crime cold cases. These cases, which may include homicides and sexual assaults, should have the potential for resolution through DNA analysis.
Advancements in DNA technology have enhanced the ability to analyze older, damaged, or previously deemed unsuitable biological evidence. This initiative recognizes that many cold cases can now be reopened and solved as crime scene samples that were once untestable may now yield viable DNA profiles.
The opportunity is grounded in the Department of Justice Appropriations Act of 2012 and focuses on unsolved violent crime cases where all significant investigative leads have been exhausted.Apply for NIJ 2012 3099
