The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) has released a new solicitation for grant entitled: Strengthening the Medical Examiner-Coroner System Program
With this solicitation, NIJ seeks proposals to strengthen the medical examiner/coroner (ME/C) system in the United States. Through this program, NIJ will support grants in two focus areas by:
- Supporting forensic pathology fellowships; and
- Providing resources necessary for medical examiner and coroner offices to achieve accreditation.
The goals of the Strengthening the Medical Examiner-Coroner System program are to:
- Increase the supply of qualified forensic pathology practitioners; and
- Strengthen the quality and consistency of ME/C services.
Proposal applications are expected to clearly identify the purpose area to which they are applying.
All applications are due by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on April 6, 2018.
