Opportunity Summary:
The W.E.B. Du Bois Fellowship Program FY 2011 was a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) to support research and evaluation focused on the relationship between crime, justice, and culture. The central aim of the program was to expand what is known about how cultural contexts shape patterns of crime and violence, as well as how the justice system is administered and experienced in different communities. While the topic can be approached broadly, the solicitation placed particular emphasis on diverse cultural contexts within the United States, encouraging work that helps explain how crime, violence, and justice processes intersect with cultural factors across different populations and settings.
From an administrative standpoint, this opportunity was issued as Funding Opportunity Number NIJ 2011 2823 under CFDA 16.566 (National Institute of Justice W.E.B. DuBois Fellowship Program). The funding instrument was a grant, and the activity category was classified as research and evaluation. The solicitation was posted on November 22, 2010, with an application deadline of March 22, 2011, and it was later archived on June 22, 2011. The listing indicated no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of eligibility.
Eligibility was described as unrestricted, indicating that the competition was open to a wide range of applicant types, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications contained in the full solicitation. In practice, this kind of NIJ fellowship and research program typically targets proposals that are methodologically sound and policy-relevant, with clear plans for producing knowledge that can inform the broader field of criminal justice research, including scholarship on communities and cultural dynamics that may be understudied or misunderstood.
The legal authority for the program came from Title I of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968, specifically sections 201 and 202, which provide NIJ with the authority to support research and related activities in the criminal justice domain. Applicants needing help were directed to NIJ program staff for solicitation and programmatic questions and to Grants.gov support for technical submission issues. The solicitation identified Marilyn C. Moses, Social Science Analyst, as the program contact (202-514-6205; Marilyn.Moses@usdoj.gov) and provided the Grants.gov Customer Support Hotline (800-518-4726; support@grants.gov) for application submission assistance.
