BJA FY 23 National Center on Restorative Justice

OJP is committed to advancing work that promotes civil rights and racial equity, increases access to justice, supports crime victims and individuals impacted by the justice system, strengthens community safety and protects the public from crime and evolving threats, and builds trust between law enforcement and the community. With this solicitation, the Bureau of Justice Assistance seeks to fund an accredited university of higher education or law school to manage and expand the work of the National Center on Restorative Justice (NCRJ), with the overall purpose to educate, train, and build knowledge on restorative justice (RJ) approaches, principles, and their application to criminal justice and community safety. This includes educating and training the next generation of justice leaders on the use of restorative justice within, or in alignment with, criminal justice systems.
