NIJ FY25 Research and Evaluation on Corrections: This funding opportunity seeks rigorous proposals on: (1) management and development of the correctional workforce; and (2) correctional officer safety. Proposals for research outside of these two topics will not be considered responsive to this NOFO. Applicants may submit more than one proposal; however, only one topic may be submitted per proposal. Applicants are requested to identify the topic addressed in their application on the title page of the proposal narrative. NIJ is particularly interested in applications with research designs that incorporate action-oriented research, where jurisdictions are an integral part of defining the program, implementing change, and revising practices based on assessment of the change. Applicants may propose a phased implementation plan if the research design and questions warrant this approach.
