Information Session for NIJ Research Solicitation

About the Seminar
The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) has launched a major solicitation to identify solutions to the nationwide problem of untested evidence in sexual assault cases.

Announced October 27, the solicitation seeks to increase our understanding of why so many sexual assault kits (SAKs) are not forwarded from police evidence rooms to crime labs for DNA testing and to develop innovative approaches to solve the problem.
