    The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), Office of Justice Programs (OJP), National Institute of Justice (NIJ) seeks investigator-initiated proposals in two funding categories under the W.E.B. Du Bois Program of Research on Race and Crime: (1) Scholars who are advanced in their careers; and (2) Fellows who are early in their careers. The program supports research on the intersections of race, offending, victimization, and/or the fair administration of justice for both juveniles and adults. It furthers the Department’s mission by advancing  knowledge regarding the confluence of crime, justice, and culture in various societal contexts. 

    Applications Due: March 31, 2017 

    Eligibility: 

    In general, NIJ is authorized to make grants to, or enter into contracts or cooperative agreements with, states (including territories), units of local government, federally recognized Indian tribal governments that perform law enforcement functions (as determined by the Secretary of the Interior), nonprofit and for-profit organizations (including tribal nonprofit and forprofit organizations), institutions of higher education (including tribal institutions of higher education), and certain qualified individuals. For-profit organizations must agree to forgo any profit or management fee. Foreign governments, foreign organizations, and foreign colleges and universities are not eligible to apply.

Under this solicitation, any particular applicant entity may submit more than one application, as long as each application proposes a different project in response to the solicitation. Also, an entity may be proposed as a subrecipient (“subgrantee”) in more than one application. NIJ may elect to fund applications submitted under this FY 2017 solicitation in future fiscal years, dependent on, among other considerations, the merit of the applications and on the availability of appropriations.
