Organizations

AGENCY: National Institute of Justice, Office of Justice Programs,

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) plans to host a series 
of listening sessions with stakeholder organizations. The purpose of 
the listening sessions is for the NIJ Director to (1) to gather fact 
and information from stakeholder organizations about current challenges 
in the criminal justice and juvenile justice ecosystems that research 
could address and (2) to explain NIJ's priorities in regard to those 
challenges. NIJ's priorities are described at: https://nij.ojp.gov/about/nij-director. Stakeholder organizations include law enforcement, 
corrections, courts, criminal justice, and public safety professional 
associations; current NIJ grant and cooperative agreement recipients; 
law enforcement, corrections, courts, and other criminal justice 
agencies; juvenile justice agencies; crime victims agencies; advocacy 
groups, including community-based entities that are dedicated to 
evidence-based public safety initiatives; and other organizations with 
a nexus to criminal justice and juvenile justice operations and 
research.

and time: October 12, 2022 from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.; October 20, 
2022 from 10:00 to 11:30 a.m.; and November 7, 2022 from 10:00 to 11:30

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NIJ is conducting this activity pursuant to 
its authorities at 34 U.S.C. 10122 and 6 U.S.C. 161-165.
    NIJ anticipates holding several listening sessions in-person on the

session, and as a result, only 25 participants will be allowed to 
register for each. NIJ requests that each organization limit their 
representatives to only one per organization and attend only one 
listening session. Exceptions to this limit may occur, should space 
allow. Participants planning to attend are responsible for their own 
travel arrangements.
    To express interest in attending a listening session, please send 
an email to the point of contact listed below by 5:00 p.m. Eastern time 
one week prior to the scheduled meeting and provide the name of your 
organization and the name of the representatives proposed to attend. A 
preliminary agenda will be sent via email to confirmed attendees prior 
to the listening session. Depending on the level of interest, NIJ may 
convene additional listening sessions to be held virtually or in 
person. The web address for any virtual listening sessions will be sent 
via email to confirmed attendees prior to those listening sessions.

Director, National Institute of Justice.
