NIJ FY22 Research and Evaluation on Trafficking in Persons

With this solicitation, NIJ continues to build upon its research and evaluation efforts to better understand, prevent, and respond to trafficking in persons in the United States. Applicants should propose research and evaluation projects that — first and foremost — have clear implications for criminal justice policy and practice in the United States. NIJ seeks proposals for research and evaluation projects addressing the following priority areas: (1) trafficking prevention, 2) strategies to intervene and respond to trafficking, once it has occurred, and 3) other understudied areas of research on human trafficking.
