Details:

OJP is committed to advancing work that promotes civil rights and racial equity, increases access to justice, supports crime victims and individuals impacted by the justice system, strengthens community safety and protects the public from crime and evolving threats, and builds trust between law enforcement and the community.

The Access to Justice Design and Testing Program (AJDTP), BJS seeks support to conduct research and testing activities related to the development of new data collections that will measure persons’ access to justice for their civil legal needs and research on additional data sources to define and measure key indicators of access to justice for civil legal needs. As the DOJ’s principal federal statistical agency, BJS is responsible for the collection, analysis, publication, and dissemination of statistics on crime, those who commit crime, victims of crime, and the operations of criminal justice systems at all levels of government. Many crime victims and individuals who commit crimes face related civil legal issues both as a direct result of the offense or because of related circumstances. To fully understand the criminal-justice landscape, additional research is needed on the civil justice system. This research, however, must comply with section 818 of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act requirement that civil-justice research bear directly and substantially upon criminal justice matters. This project furthers the DOJ’s mission by establishing support to collect data from households on access to justice for civil legal needs in an effort to better understand the nature and magnitude of the intersection between the civil justice system and criminal justice system.

Goals

The goal of the AJDTP is to support BJS efforts to identify and fill gaps in its statistical coverage of access to justice for civil legal needs that will ultimately inform an understanding of the intersection between the criminal justice system and civil justice system. This will include an evaluation of strategies to both collect household-level data and identifying and testing options to collect complementary civil justice data from courts or other relevant sources.

Objectives

An applicant should address all the objectives that are relevant to their proposed program/project in the Goals, Objectives, Deliverables and Timeline web-based form. The primary objectives of the AJDTP are (a) developing and testing the Civil Legal Needs Survey (CLNS) and (b) identifying, developing, and testing other data collections related to access to justice for civil legal needs. Applicants are encouraged to propose innovative strategies for accomplishing this work. Proposals should demonstrate a clear understanding of the link between the civil justice system and criminal justice system, as well as an understanding of the need to develop evidence surrounding this nexus.
