Assistance Listing 16.561

The Department of Justice administered CFDA 16.561 (program name deleted from source), which has not disbursed a grant award since September 2004—over 22 years ago. This program is inactive and should not be pursued.

The portfolio shows 11 total awards dating to 1992, with sparse and declining activity: one award each in 1995, 1997, and 2002; three awards in 1998; and one in 2004. The program funded criminal justice research, including community policing studies, crime analysis methodologies, law enforcement immigration enforcement roles, and facility evaluations. The assistance mix was predominantly Project Grants (91 percent, 10 awards) with one Cooperative Agreement (9 percent).

The Department of Justice was the sole funding source across all 11 awards. Combined federal dollars obligated total negative $64,059—a result of multiple negative-value entries in the award ledger that suggest rescissions, de-obligations, or accounting adjustments that exceed positive obligations. Recent representative awards include a 2004 NIJ research-and-evaluation continuation for $28,978 (completion date August 2006), a 1998 project on community policing variation across neighborhoods for $6,436 (completion November 1999), and a 1995 project on law enforcement's role in controlling illegal immigration and transnational crime for $29,523 (completion May 1999).

No active grant opportunities are present in the source. The two-decade funding hiatus, combined with the absence of current solicitations and the net-negative financial position in the award record, indicates this program is dormant or closed.
