US DOJ/NIJ call for applications for research on firearms and violence
In the aftermath of Sandy Hook, the Obama Administration has taken executive action to make federal funding available for studying violence related to firearms. This is an excellent opportunity to pursue some high-quality research in a field that lacks rigorous analysis. ------
The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), Office of Justice Programs (OJP), National Institute of
Justice (NIJ) is seeking applications for research on firearms and violence. This program furthers the Department?s mission by sponsoring research to provide objective, independent knowledge and tools to meet the challenges of crime and justice, particularly at the State and local levels.
