What the grant funds

With this solicitation, NIJ seeks proposals to examine programs funded by the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) Byrne State Crisis Intervention Program (SCIP) in Fiscal Years (FY) 2022-2024. The BJA Byrne SCIP program provides funding for the implementation and/or creation of specific program areas: (1) extreme risk protection order (ERPO) programs, (2) courts response to people in crisis, (3) community-based services for people in crisis, and (4) funding for law enforcement crisis intervention programs or initiatives. This NIJ solicitation seeks research addressing two categories: (1) scan of practices of state crisis intervention activities including those funded by BJA under the FY 2022-2023 and FY 2024 BJA Byrne SCIP (anticipate one award of up to $600,000); and (2) evaluability assessments for each of the four program areas funded by BJA under the FY 2022-2023 and FY 2024 BJA Byrne SCIP solicitations (anticipate 4 awards of up to $1,500,000 per award). Applicants must clearly indicate the category to which they are responding in the application title. Applicants may submit to more than one category, but must submit a separate, complete application for each category. Within Category 2, applicants may apply to assess programs that cover more than one BJA Byrne SCIP program area, where applicable.
