The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) is offering this grant to provide financial assistance for postconviction DNA testing. This grant is specifically designed to help defray costs associated with testing in violent felony offense cases where there’s a possibility of demonstrating actual innocence. Funding will support the review of such postconviction cases and the crucial task of locating and analyzing associated biological evidence samples. Additionally, a small portion of federal award funds, up to 15 percent, can be utilized for permissible case identification activities, provided strong justification. This initiative aims to ensure justice by enabling thorough DNA examination in cases that could prove innocence.
