BJA is seeking proposals from eligible organizations to develop and implement new and innovative strategies that better enable local criminal justice systems to prevent and respond to emerging and chronic crime problems that affect many communities in the United States. Proposals must aim to address a gap in the current base of knowledge about responding to and preventing crime and be developed or implemented in a way that allows other communities or organizations to learn from and potentially replicate the approach.
For a proposal to be considered "innovative," it must: (1) propose a strategy or response that has not been implemented previously yet is supported by research, data or evidence; (2) propose a new modification to an existing strategy or response that has not been implemented previously yet is supported by research, data, or evidence; or (3) propose a new approach to delivering evidence-based strategies or responses that has not been implemented previously and has the potential to reduce costs and increase efficiencies within an agency or system (including organizational developments and changes that may make the approach more effective or provide greater potential for sustainability of the approach in the long term). All projects should focus on developing practical tools and materials for use by other state and local criminal justice practitioners and policymakers, to include but not limited to, program manuals, program assessments/evaluations, training curricula, policy-relevant documents, guidebooks, and toolkits. Projects must include proposed performance measures and must incorporate a strategy for reporting against these measures and communicating the value or lessons learned from the project upon completion. Finally, awardees will be expected to develop project reports for wide dissemination through BJA and its partners. Applicants are encouraged to partner with a local university or research organization for project development, assessment and/or evaluation activities and this is allowable under the program.
None is available.
