Tribal-Researcher Capacity Building Grants (Webinar)

This webinar will educate applicants on the purpose of the National Institute of Justice's (NIJ) "Tribal-Researcher Capacity Building Grants" solicitation and application requirements.

With this solicitation, NIJ seeks to build an increased capability to conduct rigorous research and evaluation projects in Indian country and Alaska Native villages through promotion of engagement between researchers and tribal nations or organizations.

Proposed projects must include a new tribal-researcher partnership component.
