Description

NIJ seeks proposals to conduct criminal justice research that leverages municipal operation datasets both within and across jurisdictions.

This research is critical in enhancing public safety by giving law enforcement the tools to understand the changing nature of crime in metropolitan areas. Authorizing Legislation: Title I of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 (sections 201 and 202); Department of Justice Appropriations Act, 2012 (Public Law 112-55).
