Opportunity Information: Apply for O NIJ 2022 171323
This National Institute of Justice (NIJ) funding opportunity, titled "NIJ FY 2022 Invited to Apply - Funding Support for the Operations of the Committee on Law and Justice of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine," is a discretionary grant solicitation issued by the U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs (OJP) through NIJ. Its central purpose is narrow and targeted: to provide financial support for the ongoing operations of the Committee on Law and Justice (CLAJ), which sits within the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NAS). Rather than functioning as an open competition, this is an invited solicitation intended to fund a specific designated effort connected to the National Academies' committee work.
The opportunity is grounded in OJP's broader policy and mission priorities, including advancing civil rights and racial equity, expanding access to justice, supporting crime victims and people impacted by the justice system, strengthening community safety, protecting the public from evolving threats, and building trust between law enforcement and communities. Within that broader frame, NIJ highlights its statutory role in distributing congressionally provided funds to improve how the criminal justice system functions, prevent or combat juvenile delinquency, and assist victims of crime (excluding victim compensation). In practical terms, the solicitation explains that the award would advance these aims by sustaining the operational capacity of CLAJ, which is positioned to convene expertise, develop evidence-based perspectives, and support the kind of research and advisory activities that inform justice policy and practice.
Legally, the solicitation cites the Department of Justice Appropriations Act, 2022, enacted as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022 (Public Law 117-103), as the statutory authority supporting the funding. The solicitation is identified by Funding Opportunity Number O-NIJ-2022-171323 and is associated with CFDA 16.560, which aligns with NIJ research and development activities in science, technology, and other justice-related R&D areas. The funding instrument is a grant, and the opportunity category is discretionary, meaning it is awarded based on agency judgment and compliance with the solicitation terms rather than by formula.
Eligibility is highly restricted. Only applicants that received an official invitation letter from NIJ are eligible to apply, and the invitation letter controls the specific eligibility requirements. This makes the opportunity effectively closed to general applicants, even though it is publicly posted. Applicants are instructed to rely on the invitation letter for the precise conditions and instructions tied to eligibility and submission.
The posted timeline indicates an original closing date of May 19, 2022, and a creation date of May 5, 2022, reflecting a short application window typical of invited or earmark-aligned solicitations. The award ceiling is listed as $250,000. The solicitation also includes an important financial condition: all recipients and subrecipients, including any for-profit organization involved at any tier, must forgo any profit or management fee. This means grant funds must be used strictly for allowable project costs and operations rather than generating profit, which is a notable restriction for budgeting and contracting.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a congressionally supported, NIJ-administered grant intended to maintain the functioning and administrative capacity of the Committee on Law and Justice within the National Academies, consistent with NIJ and OJP goals around strengthening the justice system, supporting victims, addressing delinquency, and advancing equitable, trustworthy public safety outcomes.Apply for O NIJ 2022 171323
