What This Grant Funds

NIJ is seeking applications for the funding of research and program evaluation projects that inform efforts to prevent and reduce street gang activity, violence, and victimization in the United States.

This solicitation supports the U.S. Department of Justice’s priority to prevent and reduce victimization and the wide range of criminal activities that gangs commit.
