The results of this sub-award will be used to inform improvements to reflective gear and its use, which may include training, policy, and/or new gear designs and devices. This project is a cooperative agreement between the Institute for Police Research and the National Institute of Justice (Department of Justice), and is fully funded by Federal funds in the amount of $375,000. The total estimated value of this sub-award is $45,000. The complete and detailed Solicitation for Proposals is included in the PDF file found in this listing. The due date was modified to accommodate potential applicants who may have been unavailable to review the solicitation due to December 2008/January 2009 vacation.
