Description: This grant program is authorized by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5) (the &#147;Recovery Act&#148;). The National Institute of Justice, a component of the Office of Justice Programs (OJP), U.S. Department of Justice, seeks applications for funding to conduct an evaluation of internet child safety materials used by Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) task forces that receive funding from the OJP Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention under the Recovery Act. Specifically, the successful grantee will conduct a multisite evaluation of internet child safety materials used by ICAC task forces in school and community settings to examine the effectiveness of these materials and identify gaps that may exist in this field. The information is needed to help ICAC task forces make informed decisions about the best materials available to meet their missions of promoting public awareness and prevention. The results will be made available to other ICAC task forces to enhance their efforts to address internet crimes against children. Applications for funding should be submitted through the on-line OJP Grants Management System (GMS).
