Synopsis

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. With this solicitation, BJS seeks applications for the administration of the fiscal year (FY) 2023 Firearm Inquiry Statistics (FIST) Program which will cover the 2023-2026 calendar years as reference years. The aim of the FIST program is to provide national estimates of the total number of firearm purchase applications received and denied pursuant to the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act of 1993 (Brady Act) and state laws. FIST collects counts of firearm transfer applications and permit checks conducted by state and local agencies and combines them with transaction data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS).
